ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The goal of this study is to know the relationship between the parameters of perineal ultrasonography and severity of symptom in stress urinary incontinence patients. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We retrospectively examined total 68 patients with stress urinary incontinence who were diagnosed by physical examination, history, urinalysis and urodynamic study. The patients were divided into three group, 1, 2, 3 by Stamey grade in order of each grade I, II, III. We measured the posterior urethrovesical angle(PUVA) at rest and during strain, descent and funneling of bladder neck using perineal ultrasonography.RESULTS:
The mean PUVA at rest was 123.9+/-24.0degrees. In group 1, the angle was 124.6+/-20.6degrees, in group 2, 121.4+/-27.1degrees, in group 3, 138.6+/-4.9degrees(p=0.320). During strain state, the mean PUVA was 139.5+/-24.8degrees. In group 1, the angle was 140.6+/-23.7degrees, in group 2, the angle was 136.9+/-26.5degrees, in group 3, 154.0+/-10.8degrees(p=0.346). The mean descent of bladder neck was 10.8+/-4.4mm. In group 1, the descent was 9.9+/-5.8mm, in group 2, 11.3+/-3.5 mm, in group 3, 11.8+/-0.8 mm(p=0.455). The number of cases presenting funneling of bladder neck was 3, 4, 2 in each group(p=0.150).CONCLUSION:
There was no relationship between the parameters of perineal ultrasonography and the severity of symptom in stress urinary incontinence patients.
