    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Gynecology
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) significantly impacts women's quality of life.
    • Surgical interventions are crucial for managing SUI and associated pelvic organ prolapse.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the retropubic colpourethrocystopexy procedure.
    • To assess the success rate and complication profile of this surgical method for SUI correction.

    Main Methods:

    • A cohort of 120 female patients underwent retropubic colpourethrocystopexy.
    • Patient outcomes were monitored over a follow-up period ranging from 8 months to 4 years.

    Main Results:

    • The procedure showed a high success rate, with only 3 patients experiencing complete or partial failure.

  • Common complications included urinary tract infections (14 patients), incisional infections (7 patients), and prolonged urinary retention (2 patients).
  • Successful correction of Grade I cystourethrocele was also observed.

    • Conclusions:

    • Retropubic colpourethrocystopexy is a simple and successful surgical option for treating female stress urinary incontinence.
    • The technique offers a favorable risk-benefit profile for correcting SUI and mild cystocele.
