METHODS: Three out of nine international centers consented to continue the international prospective multicenter study on patients with LUTS due to BPO (IPSS ≥10, Qmax <12ml/sec, and prostate volume <75ml) beyond 36 months following implantation of iTind. Out of the originally enrolled 81 patients, 50 were followed-up at sites in Italy, Switzerland, and Belgium. Due to Covid-19 the originally planned follow-up scheme was amended: Each patient was assessed once during a timeframe of 50-79 months post-operatively by IPSS and IPSS-QoL, change in medication and adverse events via a telephone call. Patients were analyzed in three groups according to their follow-up time point (clustered into groups from 48-59 months, 60-71 months, and 72-83 months). RESULTS: Fifty to 79 months results were available for 42 patients. Four patients were lost to follow-up and two patients deceased from reasons unrelated to the iTind device. Only two patients had treatment failures (one patient underwent TURP, the other ThuLEP), while no patient required any additional medication. IPSS average results were 12.63±8.84 (50-59m, N=24), 8.85±5.54 (60-71m, N=13) and 9.20 ±5.85 (72-79m, N=5). QoL average results were 2.21±1.69 (50-59m, N=24), 1.85±0.99 (60-71m, N=13) and 1.80±1.10 (72-79m, N=5). IPSS (-8.88, -10.31, and -9.60) and IPSS-QoL (-2.04, -1.85 and -1.80) improved significantly for all groups vs. baseline, respectively (p <0.0001). Functional data is shown in Figure 1. No late post-operative complications were observed between 50 and 79 months. CONCLUSIONS: iTind for treatment of LUTS secondary to BPO is an effective and safe procedure providing significant and effective reduction in symptoms and quality of life durable up to 79 months (6.6 years) with only 4% of treatment failures after 3-year follow-up.
