DATA EXTRACT:
Meta-Analysis includes 1393 patients from 20 studies published between 2011 and 2018
67% dryness rate
90% improvement
“Interest in the use of ATOMS is increasing, as it is a simple alternative with HIGH RATE OF DRYNESS and VERY HIGH RATE OF SATISFACTION reported.”
“…could sustain an opinion that ATOMS may be an optimal choice in irradiated patients…”
“In the light of this meta-analysis, AUS can no longer be considered the only surgical option to treat severe male SUI.”
