Abstract: | OBJECTIVES: Analysis of early and late effects of surgical treatment at women suffering from the urinary stress incontinence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: There were examined 52 patients treated surgically with urinary stress incontinence, and treated with perineoplasty (group I), treated with Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedure (group II), or both types of operations at the same time (group III). Early results of treatment were estimated at the 8th-10th day after surgical procedure, and late after two-eight years considering clinical and ultrasound examinations, and individual feelings of the patient. RESULTS: A very good therapeutical effect of surgical treatment was obtained at 75% of patients, but the late one at 42% of patients. The early effect was the best within the group II (88%), whereas the late one within the group I, the worst results were obtained within the group III. The period between the procedure and repeated disorder was the longest within the group I. At women operated before menopause there were noted very good effects at 61% of them, but at those patients operated after menopause--at 38%, whereas the late repeated disorder often concerned the women operated before than after menopause (adequately 65 and 35%). CONCLUSION: The treatment of the urinary stress incontinence employing perineoplasty compared with Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedure proved slighter risk of recurrence, slighter intensity and longer period without disorders. The application of both perineoplasty and Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedures simultaneously are more ineffective than of those procedures applied individually. Early effects of surgical treatment of urinary stress incontinence are better at patients operated before menopause, however more stable effect was noted at women operated after menopause. |
