- Abstract:
- OBJECTIVE: To evaluate results 5 years after anterior colporrhaphy with or without needle suspension of the bladder neck and after Burch colposuspension. METHODS: 186/291 women (64%) operated on between 1989 and 1990 underwent clinical and urodynamic reevaluation. RESULTS: Objective continence rates after anterior colporrhaphy were 80% (20/25), 46% (22/47) and 12.5% (1/8) in patients with first-, second- and third-degree stress incontinence according to Ingelman-Sundberg. Continence rates in patients with second- and third-degree stress incontinence were 59% (29/49) after additional needle suspension and 86% (50/58) after the Burch procedure. CONCLUSIONS: Anterior colporrhaphy can cure mild stress incontinence but is not indicated for severe incontinence. The Burch procedure provides the best continence rates in patients with severe stress incontinence.
