Abstrakt: Background: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of vaginal native tissue repair (VNTR) combined with tension-free transobturator tape (TVT-O) or pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) in terms of quality of life (QoL) and sexual function (SF) in women affected by anterior defect and occult stress urinary incontinence (OSUI).
Methods: One hundred forty-seven patients with symptomatic anterior defect with OSUI underwent VNTR. In 71 patients TVT-O was inserted and 76 underwent PFMT after surgery. Clinical exam, 3-day voiding diary and urodynamic testing were evaluated in preoperative and postoperative times. Specific questionnaires were also administered, in order to indagate disease perception and the impact on QoL and SF.
Results: Nine patients had postoperative pain in the TVT-O group vs. 0 patients in the PMFT group (P=0.001) and 7 patients reported de novo urgency vs. 3 in the two groups, respectively. At 12 weeks follow-up (FU), the first voiding desire was at 88.12+19.70 mL in VNTR+TOT vs. 102.29+19.13 (P=0.03); the mean number of voids (24 hours) was 9.95±2.66 vs. 6.14±1.77 (P=0.04), respectively. No significant differences in terms of QoL and SF were shown.
Conclusions: This retrospective study suggests that VNTR+TVT-O and VNTR+PMFT have the same efficacy in terms of QoL and SF, with several post-operative complications, even if minor, in patients treated with combined surgery.
