Pubovaginal cutaneous fascial sling procedure for stress urinary incontinence: 10 years' experience.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:There is a considerable lack of consensus regarding indications and long-term efficacy of the many techniques for treating urinary stress incontinence. We report the long-term results of a modified pubovaginal sling procedure. METHODS:From 1989 to 1998, 129 consecutive patients underwent a pubovaginal sling by two urologists. 86 of the subjects (67%) replied to a questionnaire designed to assess the outcome of the procedure and the subjective satisfaction with the operative result. During surgery we performed a modified sling procedure using a cutaneous strip strengthened by rectus fascia and placed with almost no tension. Special care was taken not to lacerate or damage but support the urethral musculature. We routinely did an anterior vaginoplasty, and posterior vaginoplasty if necessary. RESULTS:Mean patient age was 56.8 years, mean follow-up 39 months, mean parity 2.1, previous surgery 0.4. Improvement rates were determined as follows ('Are you satisfied with the operation?'): Significantly reduced incontinence (i.e. 50-100% improvement) was found in 65.2%, slight reduction (10-40% improvement) in 15.2%, no change in 17.4% and worsening in 2.2% of all 103 cases. The majority of all complications were wound infections. CONCLUSION:Despite the considerable failure rate, the substantial improvement in the quality of life of almost two thirds of the patients during a 3-year follow-up recommends a pubovaginal sling as a treatment option for urinary incontinence.
