| Preoperative Urodynamic Findings Among Men Undergoing Transobturator Male Sling |
| Maria Francesca Monn, MD, MPH |
| The authors aimed in this retrospective chart review to evaluate pre-operative urodynamic findings in patients undergoing transobturator male sling (TMS). All TMS performed from 8/2006-6/2012 by a single surgeon were identified. Patients without urodynamics were excluded (n=31). The primary variables of interest were pre-operative urodynamic parameters and the success of the surgery. |

| Which Urodynamic Parameters can Predict Outcomes of Intravesical Injections of Onabotulinum Toxin A for Overactive Bladder |
| Mehwash Nadeem |
| This team asks the question of whether pre procedure urodynamics can predict the outcome of patients undergoing Onabotulinum toxin A injection for refractory overactive bladder. A retrospective review was performed on 418 patients with a mean age of 61. 126 were men. The time period was between 2006-2018. Outcomes were measured using a 5 question PGII. 74% of the patients had urodynamics available for review, 214 women and 95 men. 69% of these cases had idiopathic detrusor activity. |

| Urodynamic Staging and Grading of Men with Symptoms of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction |
| Peter Rosier, MD, Ph.D. |
| Peter Rosier showed in this study where he analyzed 2459 men >45 year with bothersome LUTS Urodynamic grading of bladder outflow obstruction (BOO) for elderly males with prostate enlargement is (ICS) standardized since 1997. Both flowrate (including PVR) and prostate size have an intermediate sensitivity and specificity with regard to the gold standard diagnosis. Symptoms have little discriminating potential. |

| Technical Performance of the 5 French T-DOC® Air-Charged Catheter for Urodynamic Studies |
| Megan Smith |
| The aim of this study was to assess the potential clinical suitability of the new 5Fr ACC through five common UDS characteristics: pressure linearity, pressure offset, frequency response, pressure drift, and infusion rate. The author suggested that the T-DOC® 5Fr ACC will be suitable for use in UDS studies. More data is needed to draw significant conclusions about the pressure drift and infusion rate. |

| Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms After Artificial Urinary Sphincter Implantation for Post-Radical Prostatectomy Urinary Incontinence and its Relation to Preoperative Urodynamic Parameters |
| Hee Seo Son, Kim M J, and Kim J H |
| This abstract was awarded the best prize in the male LUTS/ incontinence session. Artificial Urinary Sphincter (AUS) implantation is regarded as a gold-standard for post-radical prostatectomy urinary incontinence (PRPUI) 1. However, even after successful placement of AUS, frequently encounter patients who complain of post AUS lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). |
