Feasibility, technique and accuracy of ultrasound-guided transurethral injections into the urinary sphincter of female cadavers: proof of concept

Abstract: Background The injection of muscle precursor cells (MPC) into the external urinary sphincter muscle (EUS) is a promising therapeutic option for regenerative treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The objective of the present project was to conduct a pre-clinical trial to investigate the feasibility and accuracy of ultrasound (US) guided, transurethral injections into the EUS of female cadavers. Methods This is a prospective… Show more

“…Several approaches using needle injection were described in the literature: (a) transurethral by either endoscopic or ultrasonographic guidance, (b) periurethral and (c) transperineal. Just recently, the feasibility and accuracy of a new transurethral injection technique for the purpose of MPC implantation was published [ 95 ]. Only a few studies have compared the outcomes of different injection routes among each other [ 96 , 97 , 98 ].…”
