    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Techniques

    Background:

    • Anatomic stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects many women.
    • Traditional surgical correction often requires general or regional anesthesia.
    • Contraindications to general/regional anesthesia limit treatment options for some patients.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the modified Pereyra procedure under local anesthesia.
    • To assess patient tolerance and outcomes for this specific surgical approach.

    Main Methods:

    • The modified Pereyra procedure, a retropubic urethropexy, was performed.
    • The procedure was conducted under local anesthesia in selected patients.
    • Ten patients underwent the modified Pereyra procedure with local anesthesia.

    Main Results:

    • The procedure demonstrated a high success rate of 90% in correcting SUI.
    • Nine out of ten patients reported excellent tolerance to local anesthesia.
    • The average postoperative hospital stay was three days.
    • The average operative time was 45 minutes.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified Pereyra procedure is a safe, rapid, and well-tolerated option for SUI correction.
    • Local anesthesia is a viable alternative when general or regional anesthesia is contraindicated.
    • This technique effectively restores the urethrovesical junction position in selected patients.
