Modified Pereyra bladder neck suspension after previously failed anti-incontinence surgery. Surgical technique and results with long-term follow-up.
Fifty-four female patients with persistent or recurrent stress urinary incontinence who underwent between 1 and 9 previously unsuccessful operative procedures were treated with transvaginal mobilization of the urethra and anterior vaginal wall with subsequent modified Pereyra bladder neck suspension. The important points of this technique are reviewed. With minimum follow-up of twenty-four months, a 94 per cent cure rate was achieved with minimal morbidity in this difficult group of patients.
