[Long-term results of the Cobb and Badge method of bladder neck suspension in the treatment of urinary stress incontinence in women].
According to their authors, surgical techniques proposed to correct female stress incontinence give excellent short-term results. But there is no long-term evaluation and it is generally agreed that half of these patients will be incontinent again several years later. This study evaluates long-term results of the COBB and RADGE bladder neck suspension performed on 47 female patients. At five years 49% of patients are still continent or have improved. If this surgical technique gives no better results compared to others, it has the advantage of being simple and quickly executed.
