Area of Science:

  • Urogynecology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Pelvic Floor Disorders

Background:

  • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) significantly impacts women's quality of life.
  • Historically, surgical interventions have evolved to address SUI effectively.
  • Understanding the pathophysiology of SUI is crucial for selecting appropriate treatments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the historical development and pathophysiological basis of Burch colposuspension.
  • To detail the anatomical and technical aspects of performing Burch colposuspension.
  • To provide an updated evidence-based assessment of Burch colposuspension's efficacy.

Main Methods:

  • Focused literature review.
  • Analysis of historical data and pathophysiological mechanisms.
  • Evaluation of surgical technique descriptions and efficacy studies.

Main Results:

  • Burch colposuspension, via open or laparoscopic approaches, demonstrates effectiveness in treating SUI.
  • The procedure addresses the underlying anatomical defects contributing to SUI.
  • Evidence supports its role as a viable surgical option.

Conclusions:

  • Burch colposuspension is currently recommended as a secondary treatment for SUI.
  • Potential resurgence as a first-line treatment is noted due to concerns regarding midurethral slings.
  • Training in both open and laparoscopic Burch colposuspension is essential for surgical fellows globally.
