[Long-term results of the operative treatment of stress incontinence by anterior colporrhaphy with diaphragmplasty].
200 female patients who were subjected to colporrhaphia anterior with Kelly-Kennedy sutures between 1972 and 1978 in addition to a vaginal hysterectomy as therapy for SUI, returned a completed katamnestic questionnaire. By means of a five-step scale basing on a pattern by Heidenreich and the Ingelman-Sundberg incontinence scale based on incontinence-inducing situations, we achieved success (healing or markable improvement) just after the operation of 76% and 2-8 years after the operation of 70%. The reasons of failure are described in detail with suggestions to improve the rate of success.
