- Abstract:
- Objective: We set up a registry to assess complications and short-term results of the posterior intravaginal slingplasty operation. Study design: A total of 14 gynecology departments in Austria completed questionnaires addressing the patient's history, the operation itself and the postoperative course. In the follow-up we asked for information on tape exposure and functional and anatomical results. Results: Fourteen centers entered a total of 577 patients operated between 2001 and 2006. 560 (97%) posterior slingplasty operations were done in conjunction with other procedures. Intraoperative complications were reported for 16 (2.8%) procedures. Postoperatively five hematomas required reoperation. 496 (86%) patients were available for follow-up after a median of 7 weeks (range, 1-156). 54 (9.4%) patients required reoperation. Vaginal tape exposure was seen in 50 (8.7%) women. Physicians assessed the functional and anatomical results as excellent or good in 83% and 88% of patients, respectively. Conclusion: Despite the limitations of a registry and the high rate of concomitant procedures, this study provides data on the complications and results of the posterior intravaginal slingplasty operation.
