Abstract Objective To evaluate whether performing preoperative urodynamic study influences postoperative urinary symptoms of women with stress urinary incontinence that underwent transobturator sling. Methods Retrospective analysis of patients treated for stress urinary incontinence by transobturator sling from August 2011 to October 2018. Predictor variables included preoperative urodynamic study, age, incontinence severity, body mass index, preoperative storage symptoms and previous anti-urinary incontinence procedure. Outcome variables were postoperative subjective continence status, storage symptoms and complications. Logistic regression after propensity score was employed to compare outcomes between patients who underwent or not pre-operative urodynamic study. Results The present study included 88 patients with an average follow-up of 269 days. Most patients (n = 52; 59.1%) described storage symptoms other than stress urinary incontinence, and 38 patients (43.2%) underwent preoperative urodynamic studies. Logistic regression after propensity score did not reveal an association between urinary continence outcomes and performance of preoperative urodynamic study (odds ratio 0.57; confidence interval [CI]: 0.11–2.49). Among women that did not undergo urodynamic study, there was a subjective improvement in urinary incontinence in 92% of the cases versus 87% in those that underwent urodynamic study (p = 0.461). Furthermore, postoperative storage symptoms were similar between women who did not undergo urodynamic study and those who underwent urodynamic study, 13.2% versus 18.4%, respectively (p = 0.753). Conclusion Preoperative urodynamic study had no impact on urinary incontinence cure outcomes as well as on urinary storage symptoms after the transobturator sling in women with stress urinary incontinence.

AbstractObjectives: The aim of the study is to compare results, effectiveness and complications of TVT exact and midurethral sling (SLING-IUFT) operations in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods: A single center nonblind, randomized study of women with SUI who were randomized to TVT-Exact and SLING-IUFT was performed by one surgeon from April 2009 to April 2011. SUI was diagnosed on coughing and Valsalva test and urodynamics (cystometry and uroflowmetry) were assessed before operation and 1 year after surgery. This was a prospective randomized study. The follow up period was 12 months. 76 patients were operated using the TVT-Exact operation and 78 patients – using the SLING-IUFT operation. There was no statistically significant differences between groups for BMI, parity, menopausal status and prolapsed stage (no patients had cystocele greater than stage II). Results: Mean operative time was significantly shorter in the SLING-IUFT group (19 ± 5.6 min.) compared with the TVT-Exact group (27 ± 7.1 min.). There were statistically significant differences in the effectiveness of both procedures: TVT-Exact – at 94.5% and SLING-IUFT – at 61.2% after one year. Hospital stay was statistically significantly shorter in the SLING-IUFT group (1. 2 ± 0.5 days) compared with the TVT-Exact group (3.5 ± 1.5 days). Statistically significantly fewer complications occurred in the SLINGIUFT group. Conclusion: the TVT-Exact and SLING-IUFT operations are both effective for surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. The SLING-IUFT involved a shorter operation time and lower complications rate., the TVTExact procedure had statistically significantly more complications than the SLING-IUFT operation, but a higher effectiveness.

In the literature the rate of stress incontinence is reported between 29-75%. Compared to the established tension free vaginal tapes, the question arises, whether stabilization of the urethra can also be achieved by minimally invasive single incision slings. The aim of this retrospective analysis is to evaluate the cure rate after insertion of MicroGYNious sling. The study was carried out on 115 patients, who received a MicroGYNious sling. It was used both as a single operation for stress urinary incontinence and as a combined procedure. The degree of incontinence preoperatively and continence rate postoperatively with follow-ups (6 weeks, 6 months, one year, two years and three years) were recorded. Due to a high number of lost to follow-up after one year, only the data up to one year postoperative were included in the analysis. Preoperatively, grade I incontinence was found in 6.1%, grade II 35.7%, grade III 58.3% of the operated women. The continence rate was 96.7% postoperatively, 90 % after 6 weeks, 87.2 % after 6 months, 86.7% after one year. In terms of continence rates, the MicroGYNious sling shows similar results compared to the established procedures. Therefore, this sling provides a good treatment option for the stress urinary incontinence. These good results must be confirmed in prospective randomized trials.
