OBJECTIVES: @entity3815 can cause significant voiding and @entity158 symptoms. We explored the effects of @entity102 ( @entity102 ) and nerve blocks on @entity158 associated with @entity3815 . METHODS: @entity1 with @entity3815 and tined lead placed at the pudendal nerve were reviewed. History and initial improvement after lead placement were collected from medical records. Demographics, symptom characteristics and changes after various treatments were assessed by mailed survey. Descriptive statistics were performed. RESULTS: Of 19 @entity1 (mean age 54.8 years, 63% female), 6/19 (32%) had previous sacral neuromodulation. Before @entity102 , 18 @entity1 had 77 nerve blocks (median six blocks per @entity1 ); most blocks (60/77; 78%) provided at least some relief. After lead placement, @entity158 relief was complete in three @entity1 , almost complete in three, significant/remarkable in 10, and small/slight in three. All 19 @entity1 had a permanent generator placed. Five were ultimately explanted at (mean) 2.95 years: one had total symptom resolution, one had stopped using the device, and three lost efficacy. Survey respondents (n = 10) indicated that they had been experiencing @entity158 for (median) 4.42 years before @entity102 . The most helpful @entity158 treatment cited was medication for 6/10 and neuromodulation for 4/10; 8/9 rated neuromodulation as more helpful than @entity616 , while one subject felt that the two treatments were equally helpful. Compared to sacral neuromodulation, 3/4 rated @entity102 as more effective for @entity158 . Overall, 8/10 were satisfied with @entity102 ; only 1/9 was mildly satisfied with @entity616 . CONCLUSIONS: @entity102 can improve @entity158 in @entity1 with @entity3815 .
