Tvt Procedure

In this study we determined the efficacy of TVT for the treatment of female urinary incontinence in a first group of patients (69) of our urogynaecology service from April 1998 to December 2000. The TVT procedure is a minimally invasive technique, using local or spinal anaesthesia, which consists in the implantation of a Prolene tape around the mid-urethra. On the basis of our results (92.3 % success rate) we consider the TVT procedure to be a safe and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of female urinary stress incontinence.

Tvt Procedure

In this study we determined the efficacy and safety of tension free vaginal tape (TVT), a new procedure for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. TVT consists in the implantation of a prolene tape around the mid-urethra via a small vaginal incision. The TVT procedure is a minimally invasive technique using local or spinal anaesthesia allowing most women to be discharged from hospital the same day or the day after the operation. In the surgery of SUI with urethral hypermobility, TVT is without doubt one of the most interesting procedure to have changed surgery practice, and is a promising alternative to the traditional techniques. On the basis of our results we consider the TVT operation to be a safe and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of female urinary stress incontinence, having obtained a success rate of 76,5%.

Polypropylene Tape

Introduction/aim: Current method in the treatment of female urinary incontinence implies the placement of tension-free suburethral vaginal tape, using a retropubic or transobturator approach. Considering numerous complications related to retropubic approach, we reported the results of transobturator procedure in prospective study. Methods. We used a non-absorbable polypropylene tape with the outside-in (Herniamesh) or in-outside (Johnson & Johnson) transobturator approach. Results. During the period from October 2004 to September 2005 the procedure was carried out in 10 patients. In only 2 cases urinary stress incontinence occurred as isolated problem managed with transoburator tape, whereas in 8 patients this procedure was associated with other operative gynecologic events. No perioperative complication was encountered. In 80% of the patients a satisfactory result was obtained, while one patient failed to demonstrate any amelioration, and the other developed subsequently urge incontinence. Conclusion. Transobturator tension-free vaginal tape represents a very simple, safe and, in the large percent of cases, successful procedure in the management of urinary stress incontinence, with rare perioperative complications.

Abstract Introduction The accepted treatment of pilonidal disease still consists of surgical excision with primary wound closure. This treatment has complications such as excessive pain, delayed wound healing, and recurrence. We introduced this technique using a radial laser probe (SiLaCTM, Biolitec, Germany). Previous studies have shown encouraging results with respect to safety, patient satisfaction, and minimal recurrence rates. Method The pilot project was planned with the objectives to assess postoperative complications and reoperation rates. All operations were performed as day case procedures under general anaesthesia. We studied the data of our first 25patients operated with this technique between January 2019 and December 2019 using a prospective database and outpatient clinic follow up. Results The median follow up duration was 13 months. The initial success rate was 64%(16/25), reoperation was required in 32%(8/25) and one patient was lost to follow up. one patient returned with abscess formation in the postoperative period. Conclusions SiLaC is a safe and minimally invasive technique for the destruction of the pilonidal cyst and sinus. The success rate is modest, making this new therapy a minimally invasive option for the majority of the patients with pilonidal disease but it should be offered with caution.

A retrospective study of patients of the Urogynaecological Unit in Siena is reported. Out of 228 women examined, 141 had urinary incontinence (stress incontinence 110, urge incontinence 18, mixed 13). Predisposing factors and risk factors were investigated. A parallel study in a non-selected population of women was performed by means of a questionnaire of self-evaluation for urinary incontinence. About 20% of this population had urinary incontinence to some degree, but only a small percentage of these women had already sought medical advice.

This chapter summarizes the results of the Stress Incontinence Surgical Treatment Efficacy (SISTEr) trial, which randomized women with stress urinary incontinence to an autologous sling procedure versus a Burch colposuspension. Overall treatment success favored the fascial sling over the Burch procedure group, as did the stress incontinence–specific success rate at 24 months. Postoperative voiding dysfunction and urge incontinence were more common in the sling group than the Burch group. These findings supported the historical shift toward slings (autologous and synthetic) versus Burch colposuspension procedures in clinical practice.
