| Popis: | To compare the results of Burch colposuspension in premenopausal and postmenopausal women with urinary stress incontinence (USI).A total of 85 women with urodynamic diagnosis of genuine urinary stress incontinence were divided into two groups, according to their menstrual status (premenopausal and postmenopausal group). All of them underwent the Burch colposuspension procedure. Clinical and urodynamic data were compared preoperatively and postoperatively and between the two groups.Cure rate was significantly higher after Burch colposuspension in the premenopausal as compared to the postmenopausal patients (90.9 vs 73.1%, respectively, P0.01). A significant reduction of the diurnal and nocturnal frequency and urgency was noted in both groups postoperatively. The reduction of urgency was more prominent in the premenopausal women (P0.001). There were no statistically significant differences between the preoperative and postoperative values of bladder capacity, residual volume, maximal voiding pressure, peak flow rate, absolute urethral length, functional urethral length, urethral pressure and maximum urethral closure pressure both preoperatively and postoperatively within the groups and between the two groups. Comparing the two groups postoperatively, the pressure transmission ratios in the postmenopausal women were found to be significantly lower in the middle two quarters of the urethra as compared to the premenopausal patients (P0.001).Burch colposuspension for urinary stress incontinence has better cure rate in premenopausal than in postmenopausal women. Nevertheless, the above procedure remains an acceptable method for treatment of USI in postmenopausal patients. |
