    Intraoperative profilometry during urethropexy provides valuable surgical insights. Measurements indicated successful procedures increased urethral length by 50%, with Stamey-Pereyra also improving closure pressure.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Technology

    Background:

    • Urethropexy aims to correct urethral issues.
    • Intraoperative feedback can optimize surgical outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of intraoperative profilometry in urethropexy.
    • To correlate profilometry findings with surgical success.

    Main Methods:

    • Intraoperative profilometry was performed on 28 patients undergoing urethropexy.
    • Measurements assessed urethral length and closure pressure during Burch, Marshall-Marchetti, and Stamey-Pereyra procedures.

    Main Results:

    • Successful urethropexy procedures increased mean urethral length by 50%.
    • The Stamey-Pereyra procedure uniquely demonstrated a 49% increase in closure pressure.

  • Profilometry provided actionable data for surgical adjustments.
  • Conclusions:

    • Intraoperative profilometry is a useful tool for urethropexy.
    • It offers real-time feedback, especially for Stamey-Pereyra, allowing optimization of urethral length and closure pressure through suture adjustment.
