For men with stress incontinence due to a prostate procedure, there are excellent surgical treatments available, and I would recommend seeing a urologist to discuss different treatment options. The gold standard is the artificial urinary sphincter device, which is an excellent procedure and can really cure stress incontinence in men. There also are some new sling devices designed for men that show a great deal of promise and avoid the need to pump any device in order to urinate.
