[Results of sling surgery using Tutoplast dura].
From 1976-1979 127 patients were treated with a tutoplast dura sling operation. Either an open or a closed sling was used. Between one and four and one half years later 117 patients were re-examined and 65 patients had urodynamic tests. The late results of tutoplast dura sling operations are good and compare favorably to the upper data indicated in the literature. The best results are obtained in cases of prolapse. The closed sling has higher success rates but also higher complication rates than the open sling. Primary operations have better results than operations for recurrence. A severe stress incontinence should be subjected to specific primary treatment.
