Meshplasty was performed as a choice of surgery for SUI correction.Results: The study group was divided based on age(25-40,41-55,>55),parity(I,II-III,>IV), symptoms (SUI, Dysfunctional uterine bleeding, prolapse), type of anaesthesia (local, general/spinal anaesthesia), surgery performed (meshplasty alone, meshplasty with cystorectocele repair, meshplasty with vaginal hysterectomy (VH), meshplasty with VH with cystorectocele repair, meshplasty with VH with cystorectocele repair with sacrospinous fixation), complications (mesh rejection, urine retention).Conclusions: Meshplasty is a simple inexpensive procedure with short learning curve. This has a 94% success rate.
