ABSTRACT

Objective To study the changes of the symptoms and quality of life in the patients after the transvaginal tape-obtura-tor(TVT-O) operation .Methods To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 96 female patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in our hospital from February 2007 to April 2012 .48 cases of retropubic tension free vaginal tape(TVT) were taken as the control group and 48 cases of TVT-O as the experimental group .The intraoperative general condition and postoperative symptoms changes and life quality were analyzed and compared between the two groups .Results The operation time ,blood loss and hospital stay time in the experimental group were significantly less than those in the control group (t=17 .061 ,17 .026 ,15 .465 ,P>0 .05) , the difference of operative effects between the two groups was not statistically significant (χ2 =0 .711 ,P>0 .05) .After treatment , all the patients′scores of quality of life were significantly improved compared with that before treatment (29 .1 ± 9 .6 ,30 .3 ± 9 .8 vs . 70 .4 ± 10 .2 ,68 .5 ± 11 .4 ,P0 .05) ,af-ter treatment ,the symptom scores and urinal pad use of two groups were obviously improved compared with those before treatment (13 .9 ± 2 .8 ,14 .1 ± 2 .5 vs .5 .1 ± 1 .2 ,5 .4 ± 1 .7 89 .6% ,93 .8% vs .50 .0% ,58 .3% ,P0 .05) .Conclusion TVT-O can improve the symptoms and quality of life in the pa-tients with SUI .In the same time ,it has advantages of minimal invasion and low risk ,which is worth promoting ,but the surgeons need to accumulate more clinical experience .
