Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter 72400164
The Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter is an implantable device for male stress urinary incontinence featuring a 6.0 cm occlusive cuff. It includes a scrotal control pump, a pressure-regulating balloon, and medical-grade silicone tubing. Designed to restore urinary control by enabling manual voiding.
This three-component system—comprising an occlusive cuff, pump, and balloon—is connected by kink-resistant tubing to replicate natural sphincter function. The 6.0 cm cuff size is ideal for medium urethral circumferences, providing balanced compression without excessive pressure. When activated, the cuff deflates to allow urination and then automatically re-inflates to resume continence. With over 40 years of use, the AMS 800 is recognized as the gold standard for male urinary incontinence with strong long-term outcomes.
