Adjustable continence therapy for the treatment of urinary incontinence after radical cystectomy and orthotopic neobladder in women.

Abstract
The management of urinary incontinence after radical cystectomy and orthotopic neobladder reconstruction is a very challenging situation. We report on a patient that developed a neobladder-urethro-vaginal fistula successfully treated but resulting in severe urinary incontinence that was cured after the periurethral insertion of adjustable silicone balloons.
