Patients with incontinence after prostatectomy were examined for long-term results following implantation of a Kaufman prosthesis. These appears to be a dichotomy between patients who underwent implantations of the device after radical procedures versus those who had been operated upon for benign disease. Patients undergoing implantation of the prosthesis after an operation for malignant disease experienced a higher rate of complications and a lower over-all continence rate. Also, patients who underwent implantation of the Kaufman prosthesis in conjunction with the Small-Carrion prosthesis showed a 100 per cent failure rate. It appears from the data that the Kaufman prosthesis is not the long sought panacea.
对前列腺切除术后出现尿失禁的患者进行了考夫曼假体植入后的长期效果检查。接受根治性手术后植入该装置的患者与因良性疾病接受手术的患者之间似乎存在差异。恶性疾病手术后植入假体的患者并发症发生率较高，总体控尿率较低。此外，同时植入考夫曼假体和小卡里翁假体的患者失败率为100%。从数据来看，考夫曼假体并非长期以来人们所寻求的万灵药。
