RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to systematically review objective and subjective success and surgical outcomes of suburethral sling surgery for female patients with stress or mixed urinary incontinence using synthetic vs nonsynthetic material with corresponding surgical approaches (retropubic or transobturator). DATA SOURCES: We systematically searched Medline, Embase, EBM Reviews, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science Core Collection using standardized Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) without date restrictions (PROSPERO-registered). We double-screened studies and used backward citation chaining. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: We included peer-reviewed randomized controlled trials and prospective or retrospective comparative studies examining outcomes of retropubic or transobturator synthetic vs nonsynthetic (autologous, allograft, or xenograft) slings for female stress or mixed urinary incontinence, with available English or French full texts. We excluded minislings (single insertion point). We allowed slings for recurrent stress or mixed urinary incontinence, and slings concomitant with prolapse surgery, with at least 6 weeks of postoperative follow-up. We excluded systematic reviews, meta-analyses, review studies, case-control studies, case reports, studies that did not describe surgical approach or material, and studies of combination slings. METHODS: We evaluated study quality using RoB, the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized controlled trials, and the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for observational studies. We used pooled relative risk with 95% confidence intervals to estimate the effect of sling material type on each outcome through meta-analysis and meta-regression, as appropriate. RESULTS: We screened 4341 abstracts, assessed 104 full texts, and retained 35 articles (30 separate studies). For retropubic synthetic vs nonsynthetic slings, there was no difference in the number of objectively or subjectively continent patients. The rates of reoperation for stress urinary incontinence and overall were higher with nonautologous retropubic slings than with synthetic slings. Compared with autologous slings, retropubic synthetic slings were associated with higher subjective continence in populations with ≥25% recurrent stress urinary incontinence (relative risk, 1.27; 95% confidence interval, 1.12-1.43). There were no differences in continence between transobturator synthetic and nonsynthetic slings. Subjective satisfaction was better in the transobturator synthetic group than in the autologous sling group (relative risk, 1.42; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-1.94). CONCLUSION: Synthetic and nonsynthetic slings have comparable objective and subjective success, with synthetic materials generally showing better operative outcomes and fewer complications.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Retropubic midurethral sling (MUS) placement is the gold standard for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in the USA. The procedure can be approached from either a top-down or a bottom-up direction, but there is a paucity of contemporary data regarding outcomes between these approaches. The aim of this study was to provide updated clinical outcomes data. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of women undergoing the retropubic MUS procedure alone or at the time of pelvic organ prolapse repair between 2010 and 2020 at a single academic medical center. The electronic medical record was used to extract demographic data, operative approach, and perioperative complications. The primary outcome was a composite incidence of any perioperative complication. RESULTS: Of the 309 patients analyzed, 140 (45.3%) underwent top-down and 169 (54.7%) underwent bottom-up retropubic MUS placement. Patients undergoing top-down MUS placement were more likely to be older (mean age 58 vs 54, p=0.02), have a history of diabetes mellitus (20% vs 8.9%, p=0.004), and have had a prior hysterectomy (27% vs 16%, p=0.02). They were less likely to have a concurrent anterior (p<0.001) or posterior repair (p<0.001). Patients undergoing the top-down procedure were less likely to experience sling exposure (p=0.02); complications in the two groups were otherwise similar. CONCLUSIONS: The top-down approach to retropubic MUS placement was associated with lower rates of mesh erosion in this population of patients. Neither approach is associated with an increased overall risk of complications or de novo overactive bladder symptoms.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Transobturator slings (TOS) are inferior to retropubic slings (RPS) based on long-term outcomes; data on complications is critical for patient counseling. We hypothesized rates of urinary retention would be higher for RPS, while pain and repeat sling surgery would be higher for TOS. METHODS: Using the Premier healthcare database we identified encounters for patients undergoing a midurethral sling procedure between 2010 and 2020. Patients were stratified by sling type, either RPS or TOS. The primary outcome was the difference in the composite complication rate between groups within 12 months. Statistical analysis was performed using Kruskal Wallis test for continuous variables and χ2-test for categorical variables. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine risk factors for complications and risk of specific complications after sling placement. RESULTS: 36,991 patients were included in the RPS group and 16,371 in the TOS group. 7,880 patients (14.8%) had at least one sling specific complication. On multivariable logistic regression, RPS patients were more likely to have urinary retention (OR 1.29, 95%CI 1.16-1.43), sling lysis/excision (OR 1.29, 95%CI 1.10-1.53), and hematoma/hemorrhage (OR 1.82, 95%CI 1.16-2.86); they were less likely to have a UTI (OR 0.88, 95%CI 0.82-0.96) or repeat sling (OR 0.60, 95%CI 0.46-0.78). In patients with urinary retention, RPS patients were more likely to undergo sling lysis than TOS (p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Significant complications after midurethral synthetic sling are overall rare. RPS are associated with a higher rate of perioperative bleeding and sling lysis/excision due to urinary retention, but less likely to be associated with UTI and treatment failure.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Our aim was to assess whether immediate preoperative resident simulation training decreases operative time and improves resident proficiency when performing a retropubic midurethral sling (MUS) procedure. METHODS: This prospective cohort study took place over 8 months at the Icahn School of Medicine, New York, USA. During the first 4 months, all retropubic MUS procedures were performed by residents who underwent immediate preoperative simulation training. The cases completed during the following 4 months were performed by residents who had not received preoperative simulation training. During the 8-month period, residents completed self-assessment questionnaires upon completion of the surgery and attendings evaluated the residents using the Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS) global rating scale. Operative time between the two periods were compared using two-sample Student's t test. Comparative analysis between groups was performed based on the OSATS scores using the Wilcoxon rank-sum nonparametric test. RESULTS: There were 22 cases in the simulation group (SG) and 20 in the no simulation group (NSG). SG mean operative time was 12.6 min and NSG mean operative time was 14.6 min (p = 0.12). The SG mean OSATS score was 30.4 versus NSG of 27.8 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that preoperative simulation significantly improves operative performance of the retropubic MUS procedure among residents and also improves their confidence in the operating room. There was a decrease in mean operative time of 2 min in the SG, but the difference was not statistically significant. This data is consistent in demonstrating improved surgical performance and resident confidence with simulation training.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Midurethral slings are a well-established treatment option in women suffering stress urinary incontinence. Various different products and methods are used, therefore, the aim of our study was to compare two inside-out retropubic slings (TVT exact® vs. RetroArc®) inserted in two different ways regarding perioperative and mid-term outcomes. METHODS: In this prospective randomized controlled non-inferiority multicentre trial, primary endpoint was postoperative cure rate, both objective (negative cough test) and subjective (absence of leakage during physical activity using the UDI-6 questionnaire). Secondary endpoints were patients' satisfaction (Likert scale; ICIQ-UI-SF questionnaires). In addition, intra-and postoperative complications were evaluated. The TVT®-group was operated with an empty bladder, a 18 CH catheter was used with a straight inserter as instructed. Patients randomized into the RetroArc®-group were operated without inserter leading to a reduced catheter size (14 CH), bladder was filled (200 ml) during the procedure. RESULTS: Of the 303 women, 152 were randomized to the TVT® and 151 to the RetroArc® operation. At 3 months, n = 288 (95.0%) and at 12 months n = 229 (75.6%) were assessed. In postoperative objective cure the RetroArc®-procedure was not inferior to TVT® (p = 0.144). In subjective cure, however, the TVT exact® procedure achieved significant better results (TVT® 76.1%, RetroArc® 54.3%, p = 0.002). Perioperative complications were in majority voiding difficulties and lower after the TVT exact®-procedure. CONCLUSIONS: Retropubic sling procedures are safe and successful to treat female stress urinary incontinence. However, different materials and techniques result in differences between outcomes also experienced surgeons should be aware of.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The midurethral sling is the most commonly performed surgical procedure for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We compared the efficacy of transobturator tape (TOT) and retropubic (RP) slings by evaluating objective and subjective cure rates at 12 months postsurgery and evaluate the impact on quality of life (QoL) and record intra- and postoperative complications. METHODS: This was a randomized, controlled, prospective, clinical trial with analysis of noninferiority. The hypothesis was that the TOT sling is not inferior to the RP sling. A total of 92 women with SUI were selected and randomized into two groups: TOT and RP slings. RESULTS: Eighty-one patients maintained follow-up 12 months postoperatively. In the per-protocol analysis, the objective cure rates were 100% for the RP sling and 93% for the TOT sling (p = 0.029). The subjective cure rates were 92% for the RP sling and 90% for the TOT sling (p = 0.02). Because none of the upper limits of the confidence interval (CI) were above the noninferiority margin, noninferiority of the TOT sling could be concluded. In contrast, the intention-to-treat analysis could not show that the TOT sling was not inferior to the RP sling, because the upper limit of the CI surpassed the noninferiority margin. Postoperative complications were similar for both groups, except for higher urinary retention rates in the RP group. Regarding QoL, there was a significant improvement. CONCLUSIONS: The cure rates of the per-protocol analysis showed the noninferiority of the TOT relative to the RP sling. The RP sling group exhibited higher urinary retention. Quality of life improved significantly in both groups.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Midurethral slings are commonly used to treat stress urinary incontinence. Pain control, however, may be a concern. Liposomal bupivacaine is a local anesthetic with slow release over 72 hours, demonstrated to lower pain scores and decrease narcotic use postoperatively. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of liposomal bupivacaine on pain scores and narcotic consumption following retropubic midurethral sling placement. STUDY DESIGN: This randomized, placebo-controlled trial enrolled women undergoing retropubic midurethral sling procedures with or without concomitant anterior or urethrocele repair. Subjects were allocated to receive liposomal bupivacaine (intervention) or normal saline placebo injected into the trocar paths and vaginal incision at the conclusion of the procedure. At the time of drug administration, surgeons became unblinded, but did not collect outcome data. Participants remained blinded to treatment. Surgical procedures and perioperative care were standardized. The primary outcome was the visual analog scale pain score 4 hours after discharge home. Secondary outcomes included narcotic consumption, time to first bowel movement, and pain scores collected in the mornings and evenings until postoperative day 6. The morning pain item assessed "current level of pain"; the evening items queried "current level of pain," "most intense pain today," "average pain today with activity," and "average pain today with rest." Likert scales were used to measure satisfaction with pain control at 1- and 2-week postoperative intervals. Sample size calculation deemed 52 subjects per arm necessary to detect a mean difference of 10 mm on a 100-mm visual analog scale. To account for 10% drop out, 114 participants were needed. RESULTS: One hundred fourteen women were enrolled. After 5 exclusions, 109 cases were analyzed: 54 women received intervention, and 55 women received placebo. Mean participant age was 52 years, and mean body mass index was 30.4 kg/m2. Surgical and demographic characteristics were similar, except for a slightly higher body mass index in the placebo group (31.6 vs 29.2 kg/m2; P=.050), and fewer placebo arm subjects received midazolam during anesthesia induction (44 vs 52; P=.015). For the primary outcome, pain score (millimeter) 4 hours after discharge home was lower in the intervention group (3.5 vs 13.0 millimeters; P=.014). Pain scores were also lower for subjects receiving liposomal bupivacaine at other time points collected during the first three postoperative days. Furthermore, fewer subjects in the intervention group consumed narcotic medication on postoperative day 2 (12 vs 27; P=.006). There was no difference in satisfaction with pain control between groups. Side-effects experienced, rate of postoperative urinary retention, and time to first bowel movement were similar between groups. Finally, no serious adverse events were noted. CONCLUSION: Liposomal bupivacaine decreased postoperative pain scores following retropubic midurethral sling placement, though pain was low in both the intervention and placebo groups. Participants who received liposomal bupivacaine were less likely to use narcotics on postoperative day 2. For this common outpatient surgery, liposomal bupivacaine may be a beneficial addition. Given the cost of this intervention, however, future cost-effective analyses may be useful.

RESUMO

Surgical treatment of urinary incontinence using synthetic slings is one of the most frequently used procedures in modern urogynecology. The availability of almost identical surgical sets manufactured by different companies can at times significantly hamper the choice of a synthetic sling for a particular patient. This article presents a brief overview of the literature on the efficacy and safety of sub-urethral synthetic slings registered in the Russian market.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Stress urinary incontinence has a negative impact on sexual function. AIM: To assess the effect of midurethral sling surgery on sexual activity and function in women with stress urinary incontinence. METHODS: This is a secondary analysis of the Value of Urodynamics Prior to Stress Incontinence Surgery (VUSIS-II) study, which assessed the value of urodynamics in women with (predominantly) stress urinary incontinence. Patients who underwent retropubic or transobturator sling surgery were included in the present study if information was available on sexual activity before and 12 months after surgery. Data were collected from a self-report validated questionnaire combined with non-validated questions. The association between midurethral sling surgery and sexual function (coital incontinence, satisfaction, and dyspareunia) was compared with McNemar χ(2) tests for nominal data and paired t-tests for ordinal data. Potentially influential factors were analyzed with univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in sexual activity and sexual function after midurethral sling surgery. RESULTS: Information on sexual activity was available in 293 of the 578 women (51%) included in the VUSIS-II study. At baseline, 252 of 293 patients (86%) were sexually active vs 244 of 293 (83%) after 12 months. More patients with cured stress urinary incontinence were sexually active postoperatively (213 of 247 [86%] vs 31 of 46 [67%], P < .01). There was a significant decrease in coital incontinence (120 of 236 [51%] preoperatively vs 16 of 236 [7%] postoperatively, P < .01). De novo dyspareunia was present in 21 of 238 women (9%). There was a greater improvement in coital incontinence after placement of the retropubic sling compared with the transobturator sling (odds ratio = 2.04, 95% CI = 1.10-3.80, P = .02). CONCLUSION: These data show that midurethral sling surgery has an overall positive influence on sexual function in women with stress urinary incontinence. The retropubic sling is more effective than the transobturator sling for improvement of coital incontinence. De novo dyspareunia was present in 1 of 11 women.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: There is a paucity of literature on resumption of normal voiding predictors after synthetic retropubic sling insertion and lack of a standardized method of determination. Our goals were to determine the incidence of a successful voiding trial; whether clinical, operative, or urodynamic variables predict discharge with a catheter; and incidence of later retention in those who were initially successful. METHODS: We performed an internal-review-board (IRB)-approved retrospective chart review of 229 consecutive patients who underwent retropubic sling (TVT, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA)) from 2001 to 2010. Exclusions were concomitant surgery or cystotomy at the time of retropubic sling insertion. All participants underwent a voiding trial in recovery consisting of 300 cc sterile-water retrograde fill and were discharged home without a catheter after single void of at least 200 cc following catheter removal. RESULTS: Of 170 patients, 136 (80 %) passed the voiding trial the same day, with 165 (97 %) passing within 1 day. Factors associated with delayed voiding were age ≥65 years (p < 0.05), presence of Valsalva voiding (p < 0.01), lower body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.05), and higher gravidity (p < 0.05) and parity (p < 0.01). Age ≥65 years [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 3.72, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.40-9.90, p < 0.01] and Valsalva voiding (aOR 3.89, 95 % CI 1.56-9.69, p < 0.01) remained significant independent predictors in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of patients with retropubic sling can be safely discharged home the same day without a catheter after retrograde fill. Women >65 years or Valsalva voiders had nearly four times the odds of being discharged with a catheter. Most patients resume normal voiding within 24 h after retropubic sling insertion, but >65 years and Valsalva voiding are risk factors for voiding inability at discharge.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To describe a technique for the safe placement of retropubic midurethral slings in patients undergoing concomitant laparoscopic surgery in order to avoid major complications associated with this procedure such as bladder perforation and retropubic hematomas. DESIGN: Step-by-step video demonstration of the technique. SETTING: A university tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS: Patients with an indication for retropubic midurethral sling placement because of recurrent stress urinary incontinence, intrinsic sphincter deficiency, or severe pelvic organ prolapse in whom a concomitant laparoscopic surgery has to be performed for other medical conditions. INTERVENTION: Laparoscopic opening and dissection of the Retzius space and insertion of the sling under a laparoscopic view of this space. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: This technique has been mainly used in patients undergoing laparoscopic pelvic organ prolapse repair. No complications have been identified so far, even in high-risk patients such as those with previous Burch colposuspension. CONCLUSION: This is a simple and reproducible technique for preventing major complications associated with retropubic sling placement in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for other reasons. It also permits the immediate detection and even resolution of complications in case any arise. Even high-risk patients may be safely approached.

RESUMO

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of management and follow-up practices in repeat retropubic mid-urethral synthetic sling (MUS) procedure after transobturator tape/tension-free vaginal tape-obturator (TOT/TVT-O) failure, and to clarify the possible etiology of recurrent stress urinary incontinence. Methods: The charts of all women patients who underwent tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) slings after previous failed transobturator MUS procedures between February 2012 and November 2018 at a single center were reviewed retrospectively. The transperineal ultrasound was performed to assess the pre-operative or post-operative urethral mobility and location of the slings. Furthermore, some essential evaluations were also made, mainly including medical history, physical examination, 1 h pad test, and urodynamic study. Finally, primary outcomes were evaluated according to the above items at 3, 6, and 12 months after the second operation, respectively. Results: Thirty-five patients were included in the primary transobturator MUS sling procedure. At the 6 months follow-up, 32 (91.42%) patients were socially continent and negative in 1 h pad test. The transperineal ultrasound measurement results revealed that the bladder neck descent (BND) values were significantly decreased after the repeat sling operation, and better urinary continence function was observed according to the post-operative urodynamic study. Multifactorial etiologies resulted in recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI), including poor surgical technique, inadequate sling tension when treating ISD, and inappropriate sling position. Then the detail of the surgical procedure varied with the results of pre-operative evaluations, affecting the validity of the second sling. Conclusion: Recurrent SUI has resulted from multi factors, pre-operative urodynamic study and transperineal ultrasound might be valuable tools to guide repeat sling operation and predict post-operative outcomes. A repeat TVT procedure may be regarded as a remedial measure for a failed transobturator MUS operation.

RESUMO

Synthetic midurethral sling placement is the most studied anti-incontinence procedure available. Multiple randomized trials demonstrate its safety and efficacy, with results out to 5 years. With long-term follow-up, it seems there may be some benefit in efficacy to retropubic sling placement compared with the transobturator approach. Single-incision slings are a newer modification to multi-incision sling placement, and the data regarding safety and efficacy are not as mature as other forms of sling placement. Complications may occur with mesh midurethral sling placement and surgeons performing these procedures should be comfortable with the diagnosis and management of these issues.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: A midurethral sling is the gold standard surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), however a lower success rate has been reported in the treatment of SUI after pelvic organ prolapse surgery. The aim of this study was to compare the success rates, quality of life, and complications with treatment using tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) and transobturator tape (TOT) in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We enrolled patients who had symptomatic SUI after anterior vaginal mesh repair who underwent either TVT or TOT surgery. Successfully cure was defined as the absence of urinary leakage in a stress test during filling cystometry, and a negative cough test. Quality of life was evaluated using the short form of the Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI-6) and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7). RESULTS: We included 50 patients in the TOT group and 37 patients in the TVT group, with a median follow-up of 18.5 months. The TVT group had a significantly higher success rate than the TOT group (88% vs. 60%, p = 0.036), while there was no statistically significant difference in de novo detrusor overactivity (30% vs. 9%, p = 0.090). There was also no significant difference in postoperative quality of life (UDI-6, 5.9 ± 7.9 vs. 5.0 ± 5.9, p = 0.639; IIQ-7, 5.2 ± 12.5 vs. 4.3 ± 9.7, p = 0.766). The TVT group had a longer operative time (p < 0.001) and hospital stay (p = 0.004), however the TOT group required more repeat surgeries for recurrent SUI (p = 0.045). CONCLUSION: Retropubic TVT is a more effective surgical option than TOT in women with SUI after vaginal mesh repair.

We have recently described the use of a retropubic suburethral autologous sling created and placed during robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP). In this study, we assess the effectiveness of newly designed six-branches compared to two-branches suburethral autologous sling in improving early urinary continence (UC) recovery. 120 patients submitted to RARP were prospectively randomized according to the intraoperative positioning of six-branches (group 1, n = 60) or two-branches autologous sling (group 2, n = 60) obtained by different configuration of a same tract of vas deferens removed. Early UC recovery was assessed at 5 (catheter removal), 10 and 30 days postoperatively through the daily number of pads used and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence-Short Form (ICIQ-UI-SF) score. UC was defined as the non-use of pad. Chi square test and Wilcoxon test were used to investigate UC recovery between the two groups. Moreover, post-voiding residual was evaluated in each patient at the same time. At catheter removal, UC rate was in groups 1 and 2, 60 and 35% (p = 0.02); at 10 days 70 and 46% (p = 0.03); at 30 days 87 and 70% (p = 0.04), respectively. One patient in group 1 experienced acute urinary retention at the time of catheter removal and was treated uneventfully with a further 7-day catheterization. These preliminary data indicate that newly designed six-branches suburethral autologous sling is able to increase the rate of early UC recovery compared to the two-arms sling previously described by us.

RESUMO

The goal of this trial is to compare two techniques for tensioning retropubic midurethral slings: a Mayo scissor between the tape and urethra vs. a Babcock clamp creating a measured loop underneath the urethra. The primary outcome is a composite of abnormal bladder function at 12 months post surgery. Abnormal bladder function is defined as bothersome stress incontinence or worsening over active bladder symptoms, a positive cough stress test, re-treatment of stress urinary incontinence, post-operative urinary retention requiring either catheterization beyond 6 weeks or surgical intervention. Secondary outcomes include the duration of post operative urinary retention, quality of life scores, and physical examination. This article describes the rationale and design of this clinical trial, which will be of interest to those who care for patient with pelvic floor disorders such as stress urinary incontinence.

RESUMO

Stress urinary incontinence is a common, disabling, and costly medical problem that affects approximately 50% of women with urinary incontinence. Suburethral retropubic slings have been developed as a minimally invasive and effective surgical option, and they have been used as a first-line treatment for stress urinary incontinence since 1995. However, complications including vaginal extrusion, erosion, pain, bleeding, infections, lower urinary tract symptoms, urinary retention, and incontinence have been reported with use of the slings. Several companies manufacture sling kits, and the sling kits vary with regard to the composition of the mesh and introducer needle. The aim of this review was to determine which sling kit was most effective for patients, had minimal reported side effects, and was best accepted by patients and surgeons. In a review of the literature, it was found that a total of 38 studies were published between 1995 and 2014 that reported on eight tension-free retropubic sling kits: SPARC, RetroArc, Align, Advantage, Lynx, Desara, Supris, and Gynecare TVT. The Gynecare TVT was the most cited sling kit; the second most cited was the SPARC. This review provides a summary of the studies that have examined positive and negative outcomes of the retropubic tension-free suburethral sling procedure using various sling kits. Overall, the results of the literature review indicated that data from comparisons of the available sling kits are insufficient to make an evidenced-based recommendation. Therefore, the decision regarding which sling kit is appropriate to use in surgery is determined by the medical provider's preference, training, and past experience, and not by the patient.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of type of hospitalization on outcomes of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) surgery using a midurethral sling procedure. METHODS: A retrospective secondary analysis was conducted using data from a prospective multicenter randomized trial of SUI surgery at several sites in France between January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2007. Type of hospitalization was chosen according to the surgeon's policy. RESULTS: Among 149 participants, 31 (20.8%) were treated as outpatients and 118 (79.2%) as inpatients. Perioperative complications were recorded for 1 (3.2%) outpatient and 12 (10.1%) inpatients (P=0.388). At 24months of follow-up, none of 25 outpatients and 6 (5.6%) of 107 inpatients had a positive stress test result (P=0.497). Dryness was reported at this time point by 22 (88.0%) outpatients and 89 (83.2%) inpatients (P=0.922). The median satisfaction score (measured by visual analog scale [scores of 0-100]) at 12months was 100.0 (interquartile range [IQR] 93.5-100.0) among outpatients versus 96.5 (IQR 80.0-100.0; P=0.003) among inpatients. Similar results were observed at 24months (P=0.003). CONCLUSION: Complication and failure rates were similar in both groups, but satisfaction was higher among outpatients.

RESUMO

Suburethral tension-free slings (tapes or bands) are an essential component in the operative treatment of urinary incontinence. In the present contribution the influence of the type of suburethral sling (retropubic vs. transobturator) on the myofascial structures of the abdominal, adductor and pelvic floor muscles is examined. For this purpose, 70 patients were prospectively observed clinically and physiotherapeutically. Significant differences were seen in the improvement of the pelvic floor musculature (strength, endurance, speed) after placement of a suburethral sling, irrespective of whether it was of the retropubic or the transobturator type. Thus, after surgical treatment patients should be encouraged to undertake further pelvic floor exercising or this should be prescribed for them. There were no significant changes in the abdominal and adductor muscles but there were slight increases with regard to pain level, pain on palpation, and trigger points after placement of both types of sling; thus this is not a criterion in the decision as to which type of sling to use.

RESUMO

Sling therapy is the enhanced surgical support of the urethra. In this article, the history of the use of slings for the surgical treatment of female urinary stress incontinence is reviewed, and the usual surgical routes for retropubic (transvaginal) or transobturator tape passage are described. The latest innovation in sling therapy is the use of minislings, which are short tape mesh implants inserted through a single vaginal incision; these slings may be placed in an office setting. Outcomes data are either lacking or suggest a considerable decrement of effectiveness of unstabilized minislings over full-length slings; however, the short-term efficacy of a stabilized, adjustable minisling is 97%. These results suggest benchmark effectiveness associated with full-length slings in a less invasive device that also has the capability of short-term adjustability.
