Transvaginal Bladder Neck Suspension of Raz Technique for Stress Urinary Incontinence / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

We retrospectively evaluated the 20 patients who underwent the Raz operation for stress urinary incontinence. In the degree of severity, 4 cases were in Stamey grade I, 14 cases in Stamey grade II and 2 cases in Stamey grade III. Posterior urethrovesical angle(PUVA) and Urethral inclination angle(ULA) on lateral cystourethrogram were measured preoperatively and postoperatively. Preoperative PUTA and ULA were increased as the grade was higher, but postoperative PUVA and ULA were returned to normal range. The overall success rate were 90% and complications were minima1. We think that Raz technique for stress urinary incontinence is safe, reliable and low morbidity procedure.
