Retropubic colpourethrocystopexy

Abstract

A retropubic colpourethrocystopexy method was performed on 120 patients. A follow-up from 8 months to 4 years showed in 2 patients a complete failure and in 1 patient partial failure. The complications were: acute urinary tract infections (14 patients), incisional infections (7 patients) and prolonged urinary retention (2 patients). The results suggest that this technique is simple and successful in correcting stress urinary incontinence in women. Cystourethrocele grade I was corrected by this procedure.
