Filter by:The midurethral tension-free vaginal tape (a macroporous polypropylene mesh) procedure is a well established technique for treating female stress urinary incontinence in patients with (hyper)mobile urethra. Postoperative continence rates are achieved in up to 95%. Currently, several anatomical approaches are developed and investigated to simplify this minimal invasive technique and make it safer. While the retropubic approach consists of the passage of the needles from under the midurethra up behind the pubic bone through the cavum retzii, the transobturator technique traverses the foramina obturatoria. Intraoperative complications like bladder perforation (in 4%) can be treated conservatively, while postoperative complications like voiding dysfunction (urinary outlet obstruction in up to 16% or urinary retention) are troublesome, impair the quality of life and require occasionally surgical sling release (transection of the sling). The aim of this study is to compare quality of life, postoperative voiding dysfunction, success rates and tape position after retropubic and transobturator sling procedure. - Trial with surgical intervention
To compare the efficacy and complications of the TVT SECUR system (TVT S) and trans-vaginal obturator tape (TVT-O) procedures for the surgical management of female stress urinary incontinence.
To test the value of preoperatively performed urodynamics with regard to outcome of surgery for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and to examine whether not performing urodynamics preoperatively is more cost effective than performing urodynamics preoperatively using the non-inferiority assumption.
This study aims as defining success rate of the incontinence ring in women with test proven stress urinary incontinence and determining factors associated with successful use.
