And to make the problem worse, the penetrance of our thirdline therapies in patients with refractory OAB (ROAB) is less than 5%.Dr. Siegel will highlight the benefits of sacral nerve stimulation for the management of this difficult population of patients. I will shine thelight on neuromodulation directed towards ‘other targets’ concentrating on the tibial and saphenous nerve.I will briefly remind us of the excellent efficacy and safety of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) advancing us one step closerto neuromodulation for the masses. I will introduce a subcutaneously implanted coin-sized tibial nerve stimulator (eCoin), an excitingnew office-based implant currently under inves
