American Medical Systems (AMS) AdVance™ Male Sling System
The AMS AdVance™ Male Sling System was developed to treat urinary stress incontinence in men resulting from intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD). The AdVance™ Male Sling System procedure is minimally invasive and consists of using two single-use needle passers and passing them through two small incisions over the obturator foramen. The needles are pushed in an arc through the tissue and exited at a perineal incision. Once the passers are through the perineal incision, the Sling System mesh arms are attached to the needles which are then pulled back through the needle track to their points of origin over the obturator foramen. The Sling System is subsequently tensioned and all incisions are closed.
