title: Anterior vaginal repair, cause of troublesome voiding disorders?
abstract: Clinical experience and urodynamic observations in 85 female patients with voiding disorders after anterior vaginal repair are presented. Iatrogenic or persistent urinary stress incontinence (72%), irritable trigone syndrome (48%), bladder outlet obstruction (40%), unstable bladder (25%) and recurrent cystitis (23.5%) were the most frequent findings. Also, 5 cases of urogenital fistula and 2 cases of loss of a great part of the urethra were noted. Attempts to cure these complications with different pharmacologic agents and/or surgical methods were often disappointing.
