Out of 22 patients they had a total correction of incontinence in 15 patients (68.12%) with an average follow-up of 18.6 months. They also report their first experience with the Retzius plasty of Manhes by laparoscopy (average follow-up 13 months, 3/4 patients treated are continent, 1/4 SUI with high stress).
