ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the clinical outcome, patient's satisfaction and complications of inside-out tension-free transobturator suburethral tape (inside-out TVT-O) procedure for the surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence during the follow-up 2 years. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
From August 2004 to August 2006, 86 women with stress urinary incontinence underwent inside-out TVT-O procedures. We analyzed parameters incuding history taking, physical examination and urodynamic study. Postoperative clinical outcome, patient's satisfaction, complications and success rates for Stamey grade were evaluated after 12 months and 24 months.RESULTS:
The success rates were 97.6% (cured 90.7%, improved 6.9%) and 97.6% (cured 88%, improved 9.6%) at 1 and 2 years follow-up. The satisfaction rates were 95.2% at 1 year and 91.6% at 2 years. There was no significant difference of success rate between pure stress urinary incontinence and mixed urinary incontinence (p>0.05). There were no serious or long-term complications related to the procedure.CONCLUSIONS:
We considered that inside-out TVT-O procedure was a safe and effective procedure for female stress urinary incontinence for 2 years, although longer follow-up is necessary to determine long-term effect.
