NCT ID NCT07379814
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests a surgery that uses a piece of the patient's own abdominal muscle to wrap around the bladder, helping it squeeze and empty. The study will include 50 people with long-term urinary retention who have not gotten better with other treatments. Researchers will measure changes in bladder pressure, flow rate, and quality of life.
What this could mean

Active substance
rectus abdominis flap detrusor myoplasty (surgical procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this surgery could offer a new option for people with urinary retention who have not improved with other treatments, potentially reducing the need for catheters.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 50 participants. Surgery carries risks like infection or bleeding, and the procedure may not improve bladder function for everyone.
