ABSTRACT
La incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo es la pérdida involuntaria de orina durante una maniobra de esfuerzo físico, ejercicio, estornudo o tos. Afecta aproximadamente al 15% de las mujeres de 30-60 años y su prevalencia es del 30-41%. Aunque existen terapias conservadoras para su manejo, muchas pacientes terminarán necesitando cirugía para su resolución. Las mallas suburetrales son alternativas para el manejo quirúrgico, existiendo dos vías de instalación, la transobturadora (TOT o TVT-O) y la retropúbica (del inglés tension-free vaginal tape o TVT), siendo esta última la que presenta mejores resultados y menos complicaciones posoperatorias. Objetivo: evaluar la tasa de efectividad y las complicaciones de la TVT en la Unidad de Piso Pélvico Femenino del Hospital El Carmen de Maipú entre los años 2015 y 2020. Materiales y Métodos: Se obtuvieron 715 registros de pacientes que fueron sometidas a TVT y se logró contactar telefónicamente con el 60,69% de ellas. Resultados: Los resultados muestran una tasa de efectividad del 94,8% y una tasa de complicaciones del 2,3%. Conclusión: Este estudio aporta evidencia local de los resultados posoperatorios en la IOE en pacientes que requirieron la instalación de una malla suburetal retropúbica, demostrando ser una cirugía altamente efectiva y segura.
Stress urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine during physical exertion, exercise, sneezing, or coughing. It affects approximately 15% of women aged 30-60, with a prevalence of 30-41%. Although there are conservative therapies for its management, many patients will eventually require surgery for resolution. Suburethral sling are considered for surgical management, and there are two installation alternatives, transobturator (TOT or TVT-O) and retropubic (tension-free vaginal tape or TVT), with the latter presenting better results and fewer postoperative complications. Objetive: to evaluate effectiveness rate and complications of the TVT in the Female Pelvic Floor Unit of Hospital El Carmen de Maipú between 2015 and 2020. Materials and Methods: A total of 715 patient records were obtained for those who underwent TVT, and 60.69% of them were successfully contacted by telephone. Results: The results show an effectiveness rate of 94.8% and a complication rate of 2.3%. Conclusion: This study provides local evidence for the results of stress urinary incontinence that required the placement of a retropubic suburethral sling, proving to be a highly effective and safe surgery.

Background@#This retrospective cohort study assessed the outcomes of combined surgeries for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in 31 patients with a follow-up of 7 years.@*Objectives@#The study aimed to determine the success and recurrence rates of POP and SUI while comparing the outcomes, analyzing the predictors for recurrence, and reporting on complications.@*Materials and Methods@#Demographic and clinical profiles were analyzed descriptively using frequency and percentages. Objective SUI cure rate was assessed via office cystometry with a cough stress test, while POP was evaluated using the POP-Q system. Subjective cure rates for both conditions were determined using a symptom severity checklist based on the King's Health Questionnaire. Chi-square tests assessed associations between objective outcome parameters and time elapsed since surgery, and other outcome predictors, with significance set at p < 0.05.@*Results@#The results showed a high objective cure rate of 96% for SUI and subjective cure rates of 96% for both SUI and POP. Long-term symptoms included urine frequency and retention, while mesh erosion occurred in one patient. The objective cure rate for POP was 67.7%, with recurrence in the anterior compartment at the midterm and in various compartments at long term. Vault fixation suggests efficacy in reducing apical prolapse recurrence. The preoperative age was identified as a significant risk factor for POP recurrence. @*Conclusion@#This study supports the durability and efficacy of combined surgeries for SUI and POP, with high patient satisfaction.

INTRODUCCIÓN: La TVT (tension-free vaginal tape) es una cirugía efectiva, pero no exenta de riesgos. Las complicaciones vasculares ocurren en un 0,9-1,7%; solo el 0,33% se presentan como hematoma masivo, en general asociado a la lesión de variante anatómica corona mortis (CM). OBJETIVO: Reportar tres tipos de manejo en pacientes con hematomas masivos después de cirugía para la incontinencia. MÉTODO: Revisión de casos de hematomas masivos tras TVT. Análisis de tres casos con diferente manejo. RESULTADOS: 1086 pacientes operadas en 10 años, 1% hematomas sintomáticos, 0,36% hematomas masivos. Se presentan tres casos. Caso 1: presenta inestabilidad hemodinámica sin respuesta a volumen ni vasoactivos, requirió laparotomía exploradora y se encontró un vaso sangrante retropúbico, compatible con CM, y un hematoma de 1000 cc. Caso 2: hipotensión que responde a volumen, asintomática al día siguiente de alta, reingresó 12 días después con caída de 6 puntos en la hemoglobina y la tomografía computarizada (TC) mostró un hematoma de 550 cc; recibió drenaje percutáneo. Caso 3: asintomática, alta el primer día posoperatorio, reingresa al quinto día con descenso de 4 puntos en la hemoglobina y la TC informa hematoma de 420 cc, que drena espontáneamente por vía vaginal. Todas las pacientes recibieron 14 días de antibióticos, y permanecieron continentes. CONCLUSIONES: Los hematomas retropúbicos masivos son una complicación poco frecuente. Su manejo considera la estabilización hemodinámica, el control del sangrado y el drenaje.
INTRODUCTION: TVT (tension-free vaginal tape) is an effective surgery, not without risks. Vascular complications occur in 0.9 to 1.7%, of which 0.33% present as massive hematoma, generally associated with injury of an anatomical variant, Corona Mortis (CM). OBJECTIVE: To report three types of management in patients with massive hematomas after anti-incontinence surgery. METHOD: Review of cases of massive hematomas after TVT surgery. Analysis of three cases with different management. RESULTS: 1086 patients operated in 10 years, 1% symptomatic hematomas, 0.36% massive. Three cases are presented. Case 1: hemodynamic instability without response to volume or vasoactive agents, required reoperation with exploratory laparotomy, a retropubic bleeding vessel, compatible with CM, and hematoma 1000 cc was found. Case 2: hypotension responds to volume, asymptomatic at next day in discharge conditions, she was readmitted 12 days later with falled 6-point in Hb, and CT showed hematoma 550 cc; she received percutaneous drainage. Case 3: asymptomatic, discharge on the first day after TVT, readmitted on the 5th day with falled 4-point in Hb, CT informed hematoma 420 cc, spontaneously drains vaginally. Patients received 14 days of antibiotics, remained continent. CONCLUSIONS: Massive retropubic hematomas are an infrequent complication, and management considers hemodynamic stabilization, bleeding control and drainage.

ABSTRACT Urethral slings are a good treatment option for mild male stress urinary incontinence. There are many different sling options, but herein our group describes our techniques with the Advance® and Virtue® slings. More important than technique, we strongly think that patient selection is paramount to sling success. We only offer slings to patients who have low 24 hour pad weights, high Valsalva leak point pressure, and no history of pelvic radiation. Still, like with any surgery, we recommend that the surgeons implant the device that they are most comfortable with along with their chosen techniques.

INTRODUCCIÓN Y OBJETIVOS: La incontinencia de orina de esfuerzo (IOE) es una patología muy frecuente. El tratamiento estándar corresponde al uso de cintas medio uretrales. Dentro de las técnicas quirúrgicas clásicas se encuentra la colposuspensión de Burch (CSB), poco frecuente en la actualidad. El objetivo de este estudio es describir las características de las pacientes con antecedentes de una CSB que consultan en la unidad de Uroginecología. MÉTODOS: Revisión tipo transversal de los datos ingresados a la unidad de Uroginecología del Hospital Dr. Sótero Del Río desde 2007 al 2019. Análisis descriptivo de los antecedentes de las pacientes con antecedente de CSB. RESULTADOS: Durante el periodo analizado, 63 pacientes presentaban antecedentes de CSB. La edad promedio fue 68 años, 88% eran post menopáusicas, 60% fueron sometidas a histerectomía y 24% a cirugías por prolapso (POP). La paridad promedio fue 3 hijos, 15% tuvieron al menos un parto por fórceps. Un 51% consultó por IOE, 54% por vejiga hiperactiva (VH) y 56% por sensación de bulto o peso. El 38% consultó por incontinencia de orina mixta, 37% por IOE + POP y 41% por VH + POP. 22% fueron reoperadas, 16% por medio de TVT y 6% por TOT. CONCLUSIONES: El antecedente de CSB es infrecuente en nuestra población. Similar a lo descrito en la literatura, más de un 50% de las pacientes consultó por síntomas de recurrencia y por complicaciones como POP y VH. Próximos estudios deberían evaluar si el antecedente de CSB es un factor de riesgo de complicaciones quirúrgicas o recurrencia.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common pathology. The standard treatment corresponds to the mid urethral slings. Among the classic surgical techniques is Burch colposuspension (CSB), currently rare. The objective of this study is to describe the characteristics of the patients with a previous history of CSB who consult in the Urogynecology unit. METHODS: Cross sectional review of the data of all the patients admitted to the Urogynecology unit of the Dr. Sótero Del Río Hospital from 2007 to 2019. Descriptive analysis of the antecedents of the patients with a history of CSB. RESULTS: During the analyzed period, 63 patients had a history of CSB. The average age was 68 years. 88% were postmenopausal, 60% underwent hysterectomy, and 24% underwent prolapse (POP) surgery. The average parity was 3, 15% had at least one forceps delivery. 51% consulted for SUI, 54% for overactive bladder (OAB) and 56% for sensation of lump or weight. 38% consulted for mixed urine incontinence, 37% for SUI + POP and 41% for OAB + POP. 22% were reoperated, 16% through TVT and 6% through TOT. CONCLUSION: The history of CSB is infrequent in our population. Similar to that described in the literature, more than 50% of the patients consulted for recurrence symptoms and complications such as POP and OAB. Future studies should assess whether a history of CSB is a risk factor for surgical complications or recurrence.

ABSTRACT Purpose: Patient-reported history of pads per day (PPD) is widely recognized as a fundamental element of decision-making for anti-incontinence procedures. We hypothesize that SUI severity is often underestimated among men with moderate SUI. We sought to compare patient history of incontinence severity versus objective in-office physical examination findings. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our single-surgeon male SUI surgical database from 2007-2019. We excluded patients with incomplete preoperative or postoperative data and those who reported either mild or severe SUI, thus having more straightforward surgical counseling. For men reported to have moderate SUI, we determined the frequency of upgrading SUI severity by recording the results of an in-office standing cough test (SCT) using the Male Stress Incontinence Grading Scale (MSIGS). The correlation of MSIGS with sling success rate was calculated. Failure was defined as >1 PPD usage or need for additional incontinence procedure. Results: Among 233 patients with reported moderate SUI (2-3 PPD), 89 (38%) had MSIGS 3-4 on SCT, indicating severe SUI. Among patients with 2-3 PPD preoperatively, sling success rates were significantly higher for patients with MSIGS 0-2 (76/116, 64%) compared to MSIGS 3-4 (6/18, 33%) (p <0.01). Conclusions: Many men with self-reported history of moderate SUI actually present severe SUI observed on SCT. The SCT is a useful tool to stratify moderate SUI patients to more accurately predict sling success.

ABSTRACT Objective: Describe the medium-term safety of the tension free vaginal tape obturator (TVT-O) procedure in terms of complications, cure and changes in quality of life (QoL) after the surgery. Materials and methods: Descriptive historical cohort that included women over 18 years of age who underwent TVT-O due to objectively proven stress urinary incontinence, urethral hypermobility or mixed urinary incontinence in which the stress component predominated, confirmed on urodynamic testing between July 2013-April 2017, in a reference hospital located in the city of Murcia Spain. Women with previous anti-incontinence surgery, concomitant vaginal surgery and planning pregnancy were excluded. Follow-up was determined for each patient based on the time elapsed between surgery and the time when the research protocol was applied. Complications were stratified according to the modified Clavien-Dindo classification; also we evaluated subjective cure rate, quality of life using the ICIQ-SF score, before and after surgery. Results: The mean age was 52.6 (SD± 10.5) years and 80.1% of patients were at least overweight. The incidence of complications at 12 months was: 8.3% (12/144). We did not detect complications after this period in the followed patients at 24, 36 and 48 months. The subjective cure determined at 12, 24, 36 and 48 months was 62.5% (90/144), 59.09% (55/88), 50.81% (31/61) and 50% (7/14), respectively. There was a significant improvement in quality of life, as determined by the ICQ-SF mean score before and after surgery (13.76[6,34] vs 3.84[5.76]; p<0.05). Conclusions: The TVT-O surgery is a safe therapy associated with a low complication incidence at 12 months, an acceptable subjective cure rate in stress urinary incontinence, and quality-of-life improvement. Classifications of complications related to the insertion of the prosthesis and of those inherent to surgery, such as urinary tract infection, are required.
RESUMEN Objetivo: describir la seguridad a mediano plazo del procedimiento con el cabestrillo suburetral transobturador dentro-fuera (en inglés: tension free vaginal tape obturator TVT-O) en términos de: complicaciones, cura y cambios en la calidad de vida después de la cirugía. Materiales y métodos: cohorte histórica descriptiva que incluye mujeres mayores de 18 años intervenidas de TVT-O por incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE) objetivamente comprobada, hipermovilidad uretral o incontinencia urinaria mixta en la que predominó el componente de esfuerzo, confirmada en prueba urodinámica entre julio del 2013 y abril del 2017 en un hospital de referencia ubicado en la ciudad de Murcia, España. Se excluyeron mujeres con cirugía previa de incontinencia, cirugía vaginal concomitante y planificación del embarazo. El seguimiento se determinó para cada paciente por el tiempo transcurrido desde la cirugía hasta el momento en que se aplicó el protocolo de investigación. Las complicaciones se estratificaron según la clasificación de Dindo-Clavien modificada, además, se evaluaron la tasa de curación subjetiva y la calidad de vida mediante el International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) antes y después de la cirugía. Resultados: la edad media de las pacientes fue de 52,59 (DE±10,46) años, el 80,1 % tenía al menos sobrepeso. La incidencia de complicaciones en los primeros 12 meses fue del 8,3%. No detectamos complicaciones después de este periodo en las pacientes seguidas a 24, 36 y 48 meses. La curación subjetiva determinada a los 12, 24, 36 y 48 meses fue del 62,5% (90/144), 59,09% (55/88), 50,81% (31/61) y 50% (7/14), respectivamente. Hubo una mejoría significativa en la calidad de vida, en términos de puntuación media ICQ-SF antes y después de la cirugía (13,76 [6,34] vs 3,84 [5,76]; p < 0,05). Conclusiones: el TVT-O es una terapia segura, con baja tasa de complicaciones a los 12 meses, aceptable tasa de curación subjetiva de la IUE y una mejora en la calidad de vida. Se necesitan clasificaciones de complicaciones relacionadas con la inserción de la prótesis y que incluyan complicaciones inherentes a la cirugía, como la infección del tracto urinario.

Abstract Objective To evaluate whether performing preoperative urodynamic study influences postoperative urinary symptoms of women with stress urinary incontinence that underwent transobturator sling. Methods Retrospective analysis of patients treated for stress urinary incontinence by transobturator sling from August 2011 to October 2018. Predictor variables included preoperative urodynamic study, age, incontinence severity, body mass index, preoperative storage symptoms and previous anti-urinary incontinence procedure. Outcome variables were postoperative subjective continence status, storage symptoms and complications. Logistic regression after propensity score was employed to compare outcomes between patients who underwent or not pre-operative urodynamic study. Results The present study included 88 patients with an average follow-up of 269 days. Most patients (n = 52; 59.1%) described storage symptoms other than stress urinary incontinence, and 38 patients (43.2%) underwent preoperative urodynamic studies. Logistic regression after propensity score did not reveal an association between urinary continence outcomes and performance of preoperative urodynamic study (odds ratio 0.57; confidence interval [CI]: 0.11-2.49). Among women that did not undergo urodynamic study, there was a subjective improvement in urinary incontinence in 92% of the cases versus 87% in those that underwent urodynamic study (p = 0.461). Furthermore, postoperative storage symptoms were similar between women who did not undergo urodynamic study and those who underwent urodynamic study, 13.2% versus 18.4%, respectively (p = 0.753). Conclusion Preoperative urodynamic study had no impact on urinary incontinence cure outcomes as well as on urinary storage symptoms after the transobturator sling in women with stress urinary incontinence.
Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a influência do estudo urodinâmico pré-operatório nos resultados miccionais pós-operatórios em mulheres com incontinência urinária de esforço submetidas a sling transobturador. Métodos Análise retrospectiva de mulheres com incontinência urinária de esforço submetidas a sling transobturador entre agosto de 2011 e outubro de 2018. As variáveis preditoras pré-operatórias, entre outras, foram a realização do estudo urodinâmico, gravidade da incontinência e sintomas urinários de armazenamento. As variáveis de desfecho pós-operatórias foram o status subjetivo da continência, sintomas de armazenamento urinário e complicações cirúrgicas. A regressão logística após o escore de propensão foi empregada para comparar os resultados entre os pacientes que foram submetidos ou não ao estudo urodinâmico pré-operatório. Resultados Foram incluídas no presente estudo 88 pacientes com um seguimento médio de 269 dias. A maioria das pacientes apresentava sintomas miccionais de armazenamento (n = 52; 59,1%) concomitantes à incontinência urinária de esforço. Um pouco menos da metade das pacientes (n = 38; 43,2%) foram submetidas a estudo urodinâmico pré-operatório. A regressão logística após o escore de propensão não revelou associação entre os resultados de continência urinária e a realização de estudo urodinâmico pré-operatório (odds ratio 0,57; intervalo de confiança [IC]: 0,11-2,49). Além disso, os sintomas de armazenamento urinário pós-operatórios foram similares entre as pacientes que não realizaram e aquelas que realizaram o estudo urodinâmico, 13,2% e 18,4% respectivamente (p = 0,753). Conclusão O estudo urodinâmico pré-operatório não teve impacto nos resultados de continência urinária, bem como nos sintomas de armazenamento urinário após o sling transobturatório.

Abstract The placement of a suburethral sling is standard treatment for stress urinary incontinence. The transobturator technique (TOT) emerged as an alternative to minimize the risks of the blind insertion of needles, leading to a lower rate of perforation complications compared with the retropubic approach. We present a case of injury to a branch of the left obturator artery following the placement of a urethral sling using TOT, followed by intense bleeding and hemodynamic instability, which was treated with embolization.
Resumo Sling de uretra média é o tratamento padrão para a incontinência urinária de esforço. A abordagem transobturatória (TOT) surgiu como alternativa para minimizar os riscos da inserção às cegas das agulhas com taxa de complicações perfurativas menores quando comparadas à abordagem retropúbica. Apresentamos um caso de lesão em ramo da artéria obturatória esquerda após sling TOT que evoluiu com sangramento intenso e instabilidade hemodinâmica, sendo tratado com embolização.

ABSTRACT Purpose: We aimed to investigate the effects of menopause on long-term outcomes of transobturator tape (TOT) surgery. Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent TOT surgery were evaluated under two groups as postmenopausal and premenopausal. The International Consultation on Incontinence short-form questionnaire (ICIQ-SF), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7) and Urogenital Distress Inventory-Short Form (UDI-6) questionnaires were completed by the patients at the 1st and 5th-year follow-up sessions. Patients with a postoperative UDI-6 and IIQ-7 score of <10 were considered as cured, those with lower postoperative scores compared to the preoperative period were regarded as improved, and the cases that had higher postoperative scores than preoperative values were interpreted as TOT failure. The TOT success rates were compared between the results obtained from UDI-6 and IIQ-7. Results: A total of 109 patients were included in the study (53 postmenopausal and 56 premenopausal). We contacted with 90 (48 premenopausal and 42 postmenopausal) women at 1st year control and 80 (44 premenopausal and 36 postmenopausal) women at 5th year control. There was a significant improvement in all of three questionnaires between the preoperative and post-operative 1st year control (ICIQ-SF: 15.5±2.5 vs. 1.8±4.3, p <0.001; IIQ-7: 68.9±9.8 vs. 2.75±15.2, p <0.001; UDI-6: 27.1±11.1 vs. 6.0±14.6, p <0.001) and the preoperative and post-operative 5th year control (ICIQ-SF: 15.5±2.5 vs. 3.1±5.3, p <0.001; IIQ-7: 68.9±9.8 vs. 9.6±26.7, p <0.001; UDI-6: 27.1±11.1 vs. 5.1±10.0, p <0.001). When we compared the premenopausal and postmenopausal patients in terms of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI); 5 (12%) patients had recurrent UTI in postmenopausal group but no patients had recurrent UTI in premenopausal group at 1st year follow-up (p=0.039) and similarly the same 5 (13.9%) patients in follow-up had recurrent UTI in postmenopausal group but no patients had recurrent UTI in premenopausal group at 5th year follow-up (p=0.045). There were no significant differences between the premenopausal and postmenopausal patients in terms of TOT success rates at 1st and 5th year control, evaluated with UDI-6 (1st year: p=0.198 and 5th year: p=0.687) and IIQ-7 (1st year: p=0.489 and 5th year: p=0.608) questionnaires. Conclusions: Transobturator tape surgery is an effective and reliable method according to the long-term outcomes reported in this paper. In the current study, we determined that the TOT success rates were not affected by the presence of menopause.

Trans-obturator tape (TOT) and tension free vaginal tape (TVT) procedures are efficient treatment options, which reduce the surgical complications and provide adequate support to urethra in case of increased abdominal pressure to prevent stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect and efficacy of 3D printed female anatomical model on the training of TOT and TVT procedures. A 3D printed female anatomical model was produced for MedTRain3DModSim, Erasmus+ European Union project led by Turkey with the participation of Greece, Italy, Czech Republic and South Korea. Face and content validities of the model evaluated by the participants and the experts respectively. During two learning & teaching & training activities and a multiplier event of the project between 2016 and 2018; 41 medical students, 30 residents and 19 specialists of urology and gynecology were educated and performed TOT and TVT procedures with this model under the mentorship of 3 experts. All participants were assessed and scored for their achievement on both procedures with model according to 7 parameters by the experts. There was no statistical difference between the students and residents for each parameter. All the parameters of the students and specialists were statistically different. 3D anatomical models produced from real data and mimicking different types of tissues are suitable for basic anatomy education of students and residents, hands on training for junior surgeons before cadaveric courses in hybrid education system, surgical planning of the surgeons and informing the patients before the operation.
Los procedimientos de cinta transobturadora (TOT) y cinta vaginal sin tensión (TVT) son opciones de tratamiento eficientes, que reducen las complicaciones quirúrgicas y proporcionan un soporte adecuado a la uretra en caso de aumento de la presión abdominal para prevenir la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE). El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto y la eficacia del modelo anatómico femenino impreso en 3D en el entrenamiento de los procedimientos TOT y TVT. Se produjo un modelo anatómico femenino impreso en 3D para MedTRain3DModSim, proyecto Erasmus + de la Unión Europea dirigido por Turquía con la participación de Grecia, Italia, la República Checa y Corea del Sur. Validez facial y de contenido del modelo fueron evaluados por los participantes y los expertos respectivamente. Durante dos actividades de aprendizaje, enseñanza y capacitación y un evento multiplicador del proyecto entre 2016 y 2018; 41 estudiantes de medicina, 30 residentes y 19 especialistas en urología y ginecología fueron capacitados y realizaron procedimientos TOT y TVT de este modelo bajo la tutoría de 3 expertos. Todos los participantes fueron evaluados y calificados por los expertos, por su logro en ambos procedimientos con el modelo de acuerdo con 7 parámetros. No hubo diferencia estadística entre los estudiantes y los residentes para cada parámetro. Todos los parámetros de los estudiantes y especialistas fueron estadísticamente diferentes. Los modelos anatómicos en 3D producidos a partir de datos reales e imitando diferentes tipos de tejidos son adecuados para la educación básica de anatomía de estudiantes y residentes. Además de ofrecer una capacitación práctica para los cirujanos antes de los cursos cadavéricos en el sistema educativo, y una planificación quirúrgica de los cirujanos e información para los pacientes antes de la cirugía.

Penile prosthesis implant (PPI) remains an effective and safe treatment option for men with erectile dysfunction (ED). However, PPI surgery can be associated with a higher risk of complications in certain populations. This article provides a critical review of relevant publications pertaining to PPI in men with diabetes, significant corporal fibrosis, spinal cord injury, concurrent continence surgery, and complex salvage cases. The discussion of each category of special populations includes a brief review of the surgical challenges and a practical action-based set of recommendations. While specific patient populations posed considerable challenges in PPI surgery, strict pre- and postoperative management coupled with safe surgical practice is a prerequisite to achieving excellent clinical outcomes and high patient satisfaction rate.

Introduction. Le sondage urinaire ou vésical est une technique utilisée depuis l'antiquité qui repose sur l'utilisation de dispositifs médicaux invasifs pour le patient. Cet acte de soin doit se faire de façon sécurisée et s'appuyer sur des référentiels. Les objectifs ont été l'évaluation durespect des recommandations du protocole institutionnel sur la pose d'une sonde urinaire à demeure chez l'adulte, le respect del'hygiène et de l'asepsie et l'évaluation des conduites à tenir lors d'une fuite urinaire sur sonde.Matériel et méthodes. Dans le cadre d'une démarche d'évaluation des pratiques professionnelles, une enquête prospective basée sur le concept des « vignettes cliniques » a été menée, avec des mises en situations des soignants du CHU Charles Nicolle, Bois-Guillaume et Oissel en 2011.Résultats. L'enquête révèle un suivi des recommandations sur certains points comme le respect de l'asepsie et du système clos. Des divergences ont été mises en évidence concernant notamment l'usage de la bandelette urinaire chez le patient sondé, le choix du type de sonde et les couples de produits à utiliser pour la détersion et l'antisepsie.Conclusion. Des axes d'améliorations sont proposés comme la sensibilisation des équipes soignantes mais également médicales par le biais notamment d'une plaquette simple et illustrée de support d'information sur les bonnes pratiques de sondage vésical à demeure chez l'adulte et des kits «prêts à l'emploi » de produits pour la détersion et l'antisepsie

ABSTRACT Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of transobturator tape (TOT) on overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms and quality of life. Materials and Methods: Patients with stress-predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) who had undergone TOT procedures were considered candidates for this research. Preoperative assessment included anamnesis, pelvic examination, cough stress test (CST), and validated symptom severity and quality of life (QoL) questionnaires. The primary outcome, improvement and cure rates of OAB symptoms were determined based on the patient's baseline scores in symptom-related questions in OAB-V8. Secondary outcomes included the success rates of SUI, changes in the QoL score and patient satisfaction rates. Results: A total of 104 patients were included in the study. Sixty-two patients underwent TOT placement alone, and 42 patients underwent TOT placement along with prolapse surgery. The mean follow-up period of the patients was 30.47 months range: 13-52 months. At the first-year follow-up, 52 patients (50.0%) and 59 patients (56.7%) reported cure in preoperative urgency and urgency incontinence, respectively. The objective and subjective cure rates were 96.2% and 56.7%, respectively. A total of 80.7% of the cases had a 15-point improvement in QoL scores. Conclusions: MUS is not only a gold standard treatment in SUI but also presents as a promising treatment modality in stress-dominant MUI. Although the improvement rates of OAB symptoms significantly decrease over time, QoL and patient satisfaction rates remain higher than any other treatment in this patient group at the third-year follow-up.

ABSTRACT Objective: To propose a new way to objectively evaluate the external sphincter function prior to male sling surgery. Materials and Methods: We evaluated the pre-operative sphincter function throughout sphincter pressure at rest (SPAR) and sphincter pressure under contraction (SPUC) obtained throughout urethral profilometry profile (UPP) of 10 consecutive patients (age range, 54-79 years) treated with the retrourethral transobturator sling (RTS) for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) because of prostate surgery. The primary endpoint for surgery success rate was post-operative pad weight test. This was correlated to pre-operative pad test, RT, SPAR and SPUC. Post-operatively patients were classified as continent (no pad use) and those who still were incontinent. Results: Mean SPUC in the continent and incontinent group was respectively 188 + 8.8 (median 185.1, range 181 to 201) and 96.9 + 49.4 (median 109.9, range 35.6 to 163.6) (P = 0.008). Mean 24-hour pad test was 151 + 84.2gm (median 140, range 80 to 245) and 973 + 337.1gm (median 1940, range 550 to 1200) in post-operative continent and incontinent groups respectively (P = 0.008). The repositioning test (RT) was positive in all continent patients except one. The RT was also positive in three incontinence patients (false positive). In all post-operative continent patients SPUC was higher than 180cmH2O and pre-operative pad test was less than 245gm. Conclusions: SPUC seems to be a way for optimizing the sphincter evaluation as well to become a useful tool for patient selection prior to RTS surgery.

Abstract Objective To evaluate if performing anti-incontinence procedures during surgical anterior and/or apical prolapse correction in women with asymptomatic urinary incontinence (UI) may prevent stress urinary incontinence (SUI) postoperatively. Methods We have performed a systematic review of articles published in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Lilacs databases until March 31, 2016. Two reviewers performed the data collection and analysis, independently. All of the selected studiesweremethodologically analyzed. The results are presented as relative risk (RR), with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results After performing the selection of the studies, only nine trials fulfilled the necessary prerequisites. In the present review, 1,146 patients were included. Altogether, the review included trials of three different types of anti-incontinence procedures. We found that performing any anti-incontinence procedure at the same time of prolapse repair reduced the incidence of SUI postoperatively (RR = 0.50; 95% CI: 0.28-0.91). However, when we performed the analysis separately by the type of anti-incontinence procedure, we found different results. In the subgroup analysis with midurethral slings, it is beneficial to perform it to reduce the incidence of SUI (RR = 0.08; 95% CI: 0.02-0.28). On the other hand, in the subgroup analysis with Burch colposuspension, there was no significant difference with the control group (RR = 1.47; 95% CI: 0.28-7.79]). Conclusion Performing any prophylactic anti-incontinence procedure at the same time as prolapse repair reduced the incidence of SUI postoperatively. The Burch colposuspension did not show any decrease in the incidence of SUI postoperatively.
Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar se a realização de procedimentos anti-incontinência durante a correção cirúrgica do prolapso anterior e/ou apical em mulheres assintomáticas para incontinência urinária (IU) pode prevenir a incontinência urinária de esforço (IUE) no pós-operatório. Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática dos artigos publicados nas bases de dados PubMed, Cochrane Library e Lilacs até o dia 31 de março de 2016. Dois revisores realizaram a coleta e a análise de dados, de forma independente. Todos os estudos selecionados foram analisados metodologicamente. Os resultados estão apresentados como risco relativo (RR), com 95% de intervalo de confiança (IC). Resultados: Após a seleção do estudo, apenas nove estudos preencheram os prérequisitos necessários. Nesta revisão, 1.146 pacientes foram incluídos. No total, a revisão incluiu ensaios de três tipos diferentes de procedimentos anti-incontinência. Descobrimos que realizar qualquer procedimento anti-incontinência ao mesmo tempo que o reparo do prolapso reduziu a incidência de IU no pós-operatório (RR = 0,50; IC 95%: 0,28-0,91). No entanto, quando fizemos a análise separadamente pelo tipo de procedimento antiincontinência, encontramos resultados diferentes. Na análise de subgrupos com slings miduretrais, é benéfico realizá-lo para reduzir a incidência de IU (RR = 0,08; IC 95%: 0,02- 0,28). Por outro lado, na análise de subgrupo com colposuspensão de Burch, não houve diferença significativa com o grupo controle (RR = 1,47; IC 95%: 0,28-7,79]). Conclusão: A realização de qualquer procedimento profilático anti-incontinência ao mesmo tempo que o reparo do prolapso reduziu a incidência de IUE no pós-operatório. A colposuspensão de Burch nãomostrou diminuição na incidência de IUE no pós-operatório.

ABSTRACT Purpose: The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ATOMS® system for the treatment of postoperative male stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Materials and methods: We retrospectively evaluated all patients treated at our institution for postoperative male SUI with ATOMS® implant. We excluded patients with low bladder compliance (< 20 mL / cmH2O), uncontrolled detrusor overactivity, detrusor underactivity (BCI < 100), urethral or bladder neck stricture and low cystometric capacity (< 200 mL). Results: From October 2014 to July 2017 we treated 52 patients, mean age 73.6 years. Most of them (92.3%) had undergone radical prostatectomy, 3.85% simple open prostatectomy, 3.85% TURP; 28.8% of patients had undergone urethral surgery, 11.5% adjuvant radiotherapy; 57.7% had already undergone surgical treatment for urinary incontinence. The average24 hours pad test was 411.6 g (180 - 1100). The mean follow-up was 20.1 months (8.1 - 41.5) 30.8% of patients were dry, 59.6% improved ≥ 50%, 7.7% improved < 50% and 1.9% unchanged. In total 73.1% reached social continence. There was a significant reduction of the 24 hours pad test and ICIQ - UI SF scores (p < 0.01). In the postoperative follow-up we detected complications in 8 patients (19%): 5 cases of displacement of the scrotal port, in 2 cases catheterization difficulties, one case of epididimitis and concomitant superficial wound infection; no prosthesis infection, nor explants. Radiotherapy, previous urethral surgery,previous incontinence surgery were not statistically related to social continence rates (p 0.65;p 0.11;p 0.11). Conclusions: The ATOMS® system is an effective and safe surgical treatment of mild and moderate male postoperative SUI with durable results in the short term.

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the long-term efficacy of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT)and trans-obturator tape (TOT)for different types of female stress urinary incontinence (FSUI).@*METHODS@#The clinical data of all female patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) who underwent mid-urethral slings (MUS) in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2008 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, and all the patients were followed up. Based on the level of abdominal leak point pressure (ALPP), the patients with ALPP lower than or equal to 60 cmH2O (1 cmH2O=0.74 mmHg) were regarded as intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) type, and the patients with ALPP higher than 60 cmH2O were regarded as non-ISD type. According to the degree of remission of leakage of urine by using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICI-Q-SF), the surgical outcomes were divided into three categories: cured, improved or failed. The efficacy of TVT and TOT for different types of FSUI was evaluated by comparing the cure rate of TVT with the cure rate of TOT in ISD type and non-ISD type separately.@*RESULTS@#A total of 170 patients were included in this study. The patients were among 30-78 years, and the follow-up period were among 12-110 months. In the study, 117 patients belonged to non-ISD type. Of whom 30 underwent TVT with a cure rate of 86.7% (26/30), and the other 87 underwent TOT with a cure rate of 69.0% (60/87). The cure rate of TVT was higher than that of TOT in non-ISD type, however, Chi-square test showed that there was no significant difference (χ2=3.589, P>0.05). In addition, 53 patients belonged to ISD type, of whom 16 underwent TVT with a cure rate of 87.5% (14/16), and the other 37 underwent TOT with a cure rate of 51.4% (19/37). The cure rate of TVT was higher than that of TOT in ISD type, and Chi-square test showed that the difference was statistically significant (χ2=6.212, P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#For the treatment of FSUI, MUS can achieve satisfactory long-term efficacy. For non-ISD type, the cure rates of TVT and TOT are similar, while for ISD type, the cure rate of TVT is higher than that of TOT.
