Zusammenfassung: | Objective
To compare the results of the Burch colposuspension in women with stress urinary incontinence and detrusor overactivity with those obtained in women with stress incontinence and stable bladders. Additionally, to analyse the value of two detrusor instability indexes and of standard cystometric parameters in predicting the surgical outcome.
Design
Retrospective cohort study.
Setting
Secondary referral centre Urodynamics Unit, San Gerardo Hospital, Monza.
Sample
Forty‐four women with detrusor overactivity (21 with low compliance bladder and 23 with detrusor instability) and 44 with stable bladders. They were matched for age, parity, dystocia, menopause, body mass index, previous vaginal surgery, heavy work, urethral functional length and maximum urethral closure pressure.
Results
At two years follow up, the cure rate of stress incontinence was 95% in the control group (patients with stable bladders) and 75% in detrusor overactivity group (odds ratio 0.1, 95% confidence interval 0.01–0.9, P= 0.02). No significant differences were observed between cured and failed patients according to both detrusor instability indexes. Likewise, mean pre‐operative standard cystometric values of cured and failed patients showed no differences.
Conclusions
Although results were better in women with stable bladders, we believe that the success of the Burch colposuspension in cases with mixed incontinence should be considered satisfactory. No pre‐operative cystometric parameter consistently predicting the surgical outcome on stress incontinence was identified. |
