Is Permanent Sacral nerve Stimulation Implantation Under Local Anaesthesia Feasible and Effective?

Background Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique that plays an important role in the treatment of disorders of the bladder and bowel. Permanent SNS implantation under local anaesthesia (LA) offers many advantages. Objectives To assess if implantation of perma...
