Abstract
The bulbo-urethral compression through a non-resorbable sling is a new therapeutic approach in the management of male stress urinary incontinence after prostatic surgery. Several slings are being evaluated and their way of fixing is variable according to the technique adopted. The InVance⢠process ensures bulbo-urethral compression by a synthetic sling anchored to the ischio-pubic rami through several titanium screws. We report the case of two patients whose operating suites of the InVance⢠bone-anchored male sling surgery have been marked by the appearance of a perineal suppuration associated with a pubic osteomyelitis. The healing was achieved after explantation of the material implanted (screws and sling) with bone debridement and prolonged antibiotics.
