Salvage Radiation and AUS

My uro has suggested either a sling or an AUS (artificial urinary sphincter) to help with my incontinence. I waver back and forth but before making a decision I wonder what would happen if I had one or the other and then got a recurrence. Would the AUS or sling have to be removed before radiation?

    1. verbs, never got a response.

      1. beebs-not Verbs. Autocorrect got one by me.
