Purpose of review Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is mostly seen after prostate surgery (radical prostatectomy or benign prostatic obstruction [BPO] relief). As new surgical techniques (laser, endoscopic enucleation) have been dramatically expanded in the past decade, a focus on postoperative SUI is necessary to provide the best management in this iatrogenic situation. Recent findings Surgery is the main option for curative management of SUI after BPO as no oral medication is recommended. Preoperative work-up is mandatory to assess concomitant bladder dysfunction. All available surgical options (peri-urethral injections, periurethral balloons, various male slings, and artificial urinary sphincter) have been studied, but the level of evidence is very low. In this setting, SUI after BPO management is widely inspired from post-PR SUI management, mainly based on clinical experience. Summary The available literature regarding persistent SUI after BPO relief is very scarce and further studies are warranted in this specific population.
