Abdominal body contouring effectively improves stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women, with a 54.45% improvement rate observed in a meta-analysis. Further research is needed for definitive conclusions.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Urogynecology
  • Evidence-Based Medicine

Background:

  • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common pelvic floor dysfunction in postpartum women.
  • Abdominal body contouring is a popular plastic surgery procedure.
  • The effect of abdominal body contouring on SUI is debated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of abdominal body contouring in improving SUI.
  • To analyze existing literature on abdominal body contouring and SUI outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases.
  • A single-arm meta-analysis was performed following PRISMA guidelines.
  • Included studies were screened and analyzed for SUI improvement rates.

Main Results:

  • The meta-analysis included 5 studies with 196 patients who underwent abdominal body contouring.
  • The overall improvement rate for SUI was 54.45%.
  • No significant publication bias was detected in the meta-analysis.

Conclusions:

  • Abdominal body contouring demonstrates a significant improvement rate for SUI.
  • The findings suggest a positive impact of these procedures on SUI symptoms.
  • Further comparative cohort studies are recommended to solidify these conclusions.
