ABSTRACT

PURPOSE:

Pubovaginal fascial sling for stress urinary incontinence has never achieved widespread application because of a perception that the complication rate (prolonged urinary retention and secondary detrusor instability) is relatively high. We performed modified pubovaginal fascial sling operation and compared the safety and efficacy of the Cooper's ligament fixation with those of abdominal wall fixation of rectus fascia in pubovaginal sling. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

We retrospectively compared 30 women treated with pubovaginal fascial sling procedure as Blaivas described in 1995(Group I) with 30 women treated with a modified technique included fixation of sling to the Cooper's ligament(Group II). Patients were evaluated preoperatively with detailed history, physical examination, urodynamic study and incontinence staging. Postoperative outcome measures and complications were checked.

RESULTS:

Preoperative parameters, such as clinical and urodynamic data were comparable for both groups. With a mean follow-up of 5.4 months(range 1-14) for group I, 27(90%) were cured. In group II, with a mean follow-up of 6.7 months(range 1-11), 28(93%) were cured. Postoperative de novo urge incontinence was present in 6(20%) patients in group I. The hospital stays, periods of residual urine below 50ml and postoperative lower abdominal pain of group II were significantly lower than those of group I. Each group(97%) was either very satisfied or somewhat satisfied with their outcome.

CONCLUSION:

Modified pubovaginal fascial sling operation including the use of small piece of rectus fascia and fixation of sling to the Cooper's ligament is an effective treatment for stress incontinence with high cure and low complication rate. However, larger followup is needed to confirm our results.
