title: [Plication of suburethral slings as treatment of persisting or recurring stress urinary incontinence].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Feasibility and efficiency study of mesh readjustment in suburethral slings by overcoat plication in case of persisting of recurring stress urinary incontinence in patients with suburethral slings.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective and monocentric study including patients that present with a failure or recurring incontinency after suburethral slings surgery. The eligibility was evaluated after a complete clinical and paraclinical statement, proving the recurrence of the incontinence and its mechanism. Surgery consisted in a plication in an overcoat.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Nineteen patients were included. The medium delay between initial surgery and the plication was 23.4months (ds=25.5). Results were evaluated subjectively by the MHU questionnaire and objectively by the urodynamic appraisal. The medium survey was 27.2months (ds=37.3). The procedure lasts about 30minutes. According to MHU, 73.7% of patients were cured and for 10.3% the symptoms were lessened. The difference in the MHU score of stress urinary incontinence before and after mesh readjustment was significant (P=0.0005) and get down from 2.31 (ds=0.75) to 0.56 (ds=0.92) as an average. There was no complication during surgery. There were two cases of postoperative acute urinary retention which were reoperated by simply cutting a thread allowing the sling to relax without losing the benefit of the plicature. There was no significant increase in urge incontinence or dysuria.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The results of this study confirmed the feasibility, the efficiency and the low morbidity of mesh readjustment for the suburethral sling.
