well here is one study which certainly seems to suggest the neo is not perfect

They can do a voiding cath at the hospital and then ultrasound any residual urine left in the pouch. The test i had was for the Indiana so probably was different and was done prior to my supra pubic coming out.
When you look at the incredible volume of females who seem to have leakage with their own natural bladders as time goes by...there are so many surgeries for slings and half the time they don't work either.....so why they do neo's on women i don't know...we have no support...we have a very short urethra......its just what they sell. If the uro's had to have one i bet they'd find a solution.
What does Soloway say? Or does he just cut and disappear? Most of them do. Can it be revised so its not floppy anymore? I know my surgeon has re-done neo's that have become floppy but he's in LA at USC/Norris.
Sure wish i could be more help...and i wish the uro's would quit hard selling neo's to females. One doctor at Indiana U..Dr. Koch seems to have really good success with females and neos but i think he knows a secret about the detrusor muscle that others do not take the time to do.
