RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To compare autologous transobturator-tape (A-TOT) and autologous transvaginal tape (A-TVT) surgeries in terms of effectivity and complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Preoperative data, duration of the operation, complications and postoperative visual analogue scores were noted. Patients were assessed 12 months after surgery. An objective cure was defined as a negative CST and no need for reoperation due to SUI. Subjective cure was defined as a PGI-I score ≤ 2. Symptom severity and QoL were measured using the total score and the total QoL score of the ICIQ-FLUTS. RESULTS: Retrospectively 44 patients (A-TOT:29, A-TVT:15) were enrolled in this study. Mean follow-18 months. Preoperative parameters were similar. The VAS score at the 8th hour postoperatively was higher in the A-TOT group and similar at the 24th h (p = 0.007 and p = 0.587, respectively). Grade 3 complications according to clavien dindo were only observed in the A-TOT group. At 12 month the objective cure rates according to CST were 96.5% and 100 the subjective cure rates according to PGI-I veew 96.5% and 100%. A positive CST findingwasrecorded in one patient (3.3%) in the A-TOT group. Total score and total quality of life (QoL) scores on the ICIQ-FLUTS were found to be significantly improved in both groups (p = 0.001 and p = 0.001, respectively) (Tab. 4). Similar improvements were found in both groups in the overall and quality of life subscores of the ICIQ-FLUTS filling and voiding sections (p = 0.476, p = 0.315, p = 0.520, and p = 0.448, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The A-TOT technique has objective, subjective cure, and overall complication rates comparable to those of the A-TVT technique. The use of autologous fascia provides an opportunity to avoid mesh-related complications.

Literature indicating clinical growth hormone deficiency due to depression is extremely limited, despite a well-known impaired basal and/or stimulated growth hormone secretion in depressive disorders. In this communication, we present a case of short stature due to growth hormone neurosecretory dysfunction in a nine year old girl with major depressive disorder.
