title: [Surgical treatment of female urinary stress incontinence].
abstract: Since the description of the sub urethral technique for genuine stress incontinence all the others have been abandoned. The surgical indications have not changed and are related to the poor quality of life of the patient induced by stress incontinence. A careful clinical examination and a pre operative urodynamique investigation should prevent from the failures due to a wrong indication. All the techniques are the same when it comes to the result except the mini slings which still have to be evaluated. There are two types of complications: the ones which are specific to the using of a hexogen material by vaginal way and the ones linked to the technique itself. The results are excellent, more than 80% success and last for a long period.
