    Instructional Course: Beyond the Standard - Selecting, Implanting, and Adjusting the Latest Adjustable Male Continence Devices

    Saturday, November 14, 2026
    14:00 - 15:30 CET

      Chair(s)

    • Bob Yang

      Professor and Consultant Urologist
      Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust, United Kingdom

    This instructional course provides a comprehensive, contemporary review of adjustable solutions for male stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The course transitions from the non-surgical PaceyCuff—analysing its role for frail patients or those on surgical waiting lists—to advanced surgical interventions. Participants will critically evaluate the A.M.I ATOMS system, focusing on surgical techniques, port-based adjustment, and long-term outcomes for mild-to-moderate SUI. Finally, the session explores the next generation of artificial urinary sphincters, specifically the Rigicon ContiReflex, contrasting its design and indications with traditional AUS devices.

    Designed for healthcare professionals of all experience levels—including those new to the field, as well as urologists, nurse practitioners, and physiotherapists—this course features a significant hands-on component. Candidates will gain practical experience with each device in a friendly, relaxed environment, ensuring they have the best opportunity to familiarise themselves with the latest advancements in personalised SUI management.

    Learning Objectives:

    At the end of this session, attendees should be able to:
    • Assess the efficacy, safety profile, and patient selection criteria for the PaceyCuff as a non-ischaemic external device for both temporary and definitive SUI management.
    • Evaluate the clinical role of the A.M.I. ATOMS system in mild-to-moderate SUI, including the specific techniques for percutaneous port-based post-operative adjustment.
    • Compare the design, implantation techniques, and functional mechanics of the Rigicon ContiReflex artificial urinary sphincter against current gold-standard devices.
