title: Clinical and urodynamic features of failed incontinence surgery in the female.
abstract: Sixty women with urinary incontinence were treated by the Burch colposuspension operation and bladder neck plication. The pre- and postoperative clinical and urodynamic features of the 15 patients with recurrent incontinence were compared and contrasted with 45 women who were cured. Factors which were associated with failed surgery included increaseing age, previous continence surgery, the presence of detrusor instability, and a postoperative rise of intrinsic bladder pressure either on filling of standing up.
