title: [Treatment of female urinary stress incontinence with a Zoedler suspension-plasty and a new, stable, radiopaque polyester sling].
abstract: We report on 183 patients with urinary stress incontinence treated with bladder-neck suspension plasty according to Zoedler from 1972-1982 using the conventional nylon sling. 86.1% of the patients were continent postoperatively. Long term follow-up to 10 years however showed a continuous decrease of success rate in the first 2 postoperative years (74.9% in the 1st, 67.2% in the 2nd year). From the 3rd postoperative year there was a stable continence-rate of 50.7%. As the significant increase of incontinence relapse is due to enzymatic destruction of the nylon sling--first described in ophtalmology--we developed a new form-stable and radiopaque polyester sling. Since 1983 we implanted this new sling in 40 patients. Long term results of the conventional Zoedler procedure and first results of a modified method using the new polyester sling are discussed.
