OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcome of @entity12870 for treatment of female stress urinary @entity322 . MATERIAL AND METHOD: From September 1997 to January 2000, one hundred consecutive @entity1 with urodynamically proven @entity3142 had a @entity12870 performed. Operative technique, intraoperative and post-operative complications, voiding patterns, residual urine as well as the follow-up course were reviewed. RESULTS: Of one hundred cases, the mean @entity1 age was 52.6 years old (range 34-73). The etiologies of @entity3142 were 85 cases of @entity6369 and 15 cases of @entity1690 ( @entity1690 ). Eighteen cases were after failure of prior continence procedures. No intraoperative and post-operative complications were found except one case of wound @entity281 . Minimal @entity548 was noted. Marked post-operative residual urine (>100 ml) was found in 39 cases and clean intermittent catheterization was used. The mean time for catheterization was 8.9 weeks (range 2-12 weeks). The mean time to follow-up was 12.1 months (range 4-36 months). Ninety-four cases had been completely dried in the follow-up period since the last visit and 5 cases had much improvement of @entity322 using only 1-2 pads/day. Only one case was found to have failed the procedure. De novo instability was found in 5 cases. CONCLUSION: On the basis of these results, we propose that pubovaginal sling is an effective treatment for female @entity3142 with very few complications.
