Abstract

Reconstructive urology will experience significant changes in the coming years. Urological surgery will become less invasive and simultaneously ensure better outcomes. There will be a choice of different treatment options hopefully offering therapeutic approaches more tailored to different urological diseases. Minimization of hospitalization time and an increase in therapeutic success rates are primary objectives in the development of tissue engineering in reconstructive urology. Despite the fact that tissue engineering is a novel field, it promises to influence urological treatment in the near future. It will change surgical techniques, even minimize some reconstructive techniques and improve quality of life. The researchers must be acknowledged for the impressive workload they did to pioneer the application of stem cells in the field of SUI, including developments of protocols for cell culture, quality control, imaging of the rhabdosphincter and cell implantations. Moreover, resisting the temptation to report the initial results, some authors performed a randomized controlled trial testing their approach against one of the standard surgical treatment for SUI, which is the best possible approach in the era of evidence-based medicine.
