[en] Introduction and hypothesis
The aim of this study was to evaluate, retrospectively, the place of sub-urethral mesh readjustment when treating recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after TVT-O.
Methods
Between August 2006 and August 2008, eight patients had recurrent or persistent SUI. They were treated surgically by tightening the pre-implanted sling.
Results
Medium delay between first surgery and mesh adjustment was 6 months. One patient needed a second TVT-O for rupture of the pre-implanted mesh during adjustment. Among the seven patients who underwent a mesh readjustment, three were cured, three improved, there was one failure. Mean follow-up was 25 months.
Conclusions
The sub-urethral mesh readjustment is a simple and safe procedure for patients with recurrent SIU after TVT-O procedure. Success rates are high, surgery minimally invasive but long-term follow-up is needed to evaluate efficiency.
