[5 years results of incontinence operations].
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate results 5 years after anterior colporrhaphy with or without needle suspension of the bladder neck and after Burch colposuspension.


METHODS
186/291 women (64%) operated on between 1989 and 1990 underwent clinical and urodynamic reevaluation.


RESULTS
Objective continence rates after anterior colporrhaphy were 80% (20/25), 46% (22/47) and 12.5% (1/8) in patients with first-, second- and third-degree stress incontinence according to Ingelman-Sundberg. Continence rates in patients with second- and third-degree stress incontinence were 59% (29/49) after additional needle suspension and 86% (50/58) after the Burch procedure.


CONCLUSIONS
Anterior colporrhaphy can cure mild stress incontinence but is not indicated for severe incontinence. The Burch procedure provides the best continence rates in patients with severe stress incontinence.
