Eligibility


Inclusion Criteria:

   - Adult men age 18-80 who have had an open or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy more
   than 6 months ago who have bothersome urinary incontinence.

Exclusion Criteria:

   - Any significant cardiac or pulmonary co-morbidities that would preclude the patient
   from another surgical procedure as they would be too high risk for general anesthesia.

   - They will also be excluded if based on their anatomy or urodynamics, they will most
   likely not benefit from a surgical incontinence procedure (e.g. poor bladder
   contractility, bladder neck contracture, etc).
