“…[1][2][3] In these treatments, an injectable bulking agent is injected into the ureteral orifice or bladder neck using arthroscopy to induce anatomical changes. These endoscopic procedures are attractive because they are minimally invasive and it is anticipated that they will decrease patient discomfort, surgery extent, and operating time.…”

“…These endoscopic procedures are attractive because they are minimally invasive and it is anticipated that they will decrease patient discomfort, surgery extent, and operating time. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Several injectable bulking agents, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) paste, 7,8 collagen gel, 9 -12 liquid or particulated silicone, [13][14][15][16] polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, [17][18][19] and autologous fat, 20,21 have been developed and applied in the injection therapies. However, concerns regarding the side effects of these materials have limited general acceptance of their usage.…”

“…28,29 Currently, this technology is under FDA-sanctioned clinical trials for the treatment of urinary incontinence and vesicoureteral re¯ux. 30 In a similar manner, autologous cartilage tissue, made of the patient's own cells, could be used intracorporally for erectile dysfunction. However, in order to be able to engineer cartilage penile rods for clinical use, further studies must be conducted, including the establishment of functional and biomechanical parameters of the prostheses in vivo.…”
