The Gore-tex sling procedure for female sphincteric incontinence: indications, technique, and results.

Abstract:

:We constructed a pubovaginal sling using the Gore-tex Soft Tissue Patch and 2-0 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) suspension suture and placed it in 122 consecutive incontinent women with urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. We performed a retrospective outcome analysis using a questionnaire-based telephone survey. The mean follow-up period was 24.4 months. Stress incontinence was cured in 88% of patients (equally effective in type II and type III incontinence), de novo postoperative urinary frequency occurred in 32% of cases, and preoperative urinary frequency resolved postoperatively in 51% of patients. Significant urinary obstruction occurred in 5% of patients. Vaginal granulation tissue with exposed sling occurred in 4% of patients. There was no urethral or bladder erosion. The treatment of female stress incontinence with a PTFE sling is effective and durable with minimal complications. Furthermore, this technique addresses many of the presumed technical shortcomings of endoscopic needle suspensions.
