Postprostatectomy continence after functional magnetic pelvic stimulation

Although radical prostatectomy is considered the gold standard for optimal treatment of localized prostate cancer, this radical surgery carries a significant risk of erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence which can be present as transient or permanent side effects in many patients. We have made significant advances in diagnostic and surgical approach to prostate cancer, using a number of new methods that are becoming increasingly available, resulting in better treatment outcomes. However, we still do not use all the possibilities for the prevention and treatment of these side effects, probably due to their insufficient research, or unclear effectiveness. Functional magnetic stimulation is a method used to treat a large number of diseases, i.e., to alleviate their symptoms and ailments. Its role through pelvic stimulation has been proven in the treatment of incontinence in women, and in our study, we want to determine its role in more detail, primarily in the treatment of urinary incontinence in patients after prostate cancer surgery. In case of positive results, this method may be recommended for wider use in patients with adverse effects of radical prostatectomy.
