The anti-incontinence methods "tension free" may be insufficient in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (IUS) due to intrinsic sphincteric dysfunction (ISD). We report our findings on the use of the suburetral sling with adjustable tension "Remeex" sistem in the treatment of 24 patients. METHODS. Between May 2002 and February 2008, 24 patients with IUS of type III, were subjected to suburetral sling "Reemex." Positioning. The intervention provides a vaginal access to the positioning of suburetral sling and an access to the positioning of a varitensor which the wires are connected at the sling seats, recovered by the passage of a Stamey needle carrier of. The average operative time was approximately 70 minutes, the resignation was in I-II day. The tension of the sling was adjusted the day following intervention by turning the screw connected to the varitensor. Patients were followed with physical examination and completed the Korman's questionnaire about the quality of life. RESULTS. At a follow-up average 30 months, 21 patients (87.5%) were perfectly continent with improvement of quality of life. Among the complications, wound infection occurred in 2 patients (8%); 1 (4%) with mild recurrence IUS; 1 (4%) reported "de novo" urgency, 1 (4%) reported urinary retention. CONCLUSIONS. Our data show that the use of the suburetral sling "ReMeEx" is a effective option in the treatment of IUS due to ISD which is a condition often secondary to urogynecologic surgery and refractory to common techniques antincontinence. |
