title: [Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz operation or fasciaplasty in therapy of recurrent urinary incontinence in women].
abstract: In this study, a follow-up examination was carried out, comprising 59 female patients who were operated between the years 1985 and 1991 because of recurrent urinary incontinence. We distinguished two different operating methods: 34 women were treated following the Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz operation technique, whereas a fasciaplasty-suspension was employed om 25 patients. At the urodynamic follow-up examination, the patients had experienced an average history of 2 years' recurrent urinary incontinence. The patients' subjective observation of anamnestic urinary incontinence was objectified by a clinical cough test, cystotonometry and sonography of the small pelvis. Making extensive use of the urodynamic examination possibilities showed a 79.4% improvement following the Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz operation in comparison to a 52% improvement after the fasciaplasty operation. The operations success is assessed by evaluation of the depression quotient. Here the Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz operation resulted in a significant improvement. After the fasciaplasty operation, however, this was not found to be the case.
