[Effectiveness of Burch colposuspension in females with recurrent stress incontinence--a urodynamic and ultrasound study].
A collective of 31 women with recurrent stress urinary incontinence was subject to Burch colposuspension. The average time interval between the primary treatment (anterior colporrhaphy) and surgical colposuspension was 5.5 years. All patients underwent clinical, urodynamic and sonographic assessment of incontinence prior to and after surgery. The follow-up examination was performed at an average of 14.5 months after colposuspension according to the method reported by Burch. In 87% of patients, continence was achieved. 90% of patients were able to void without any formation of residual urine in the bladder. In the attempt to optimise the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures pertaining to female incontinence, introitus sonography and urodynamic assessment have proved to be valid adjuvant tools.
