Abstract:
Laparoscopic colpoureterosuspension is a feasible surgical procedure for correcting the stress incontinence in women. A total of 41 patients underwent pelvis laparoscopic procedure. The average age of the patients was 55.4 years (range between 40 and 68 years). The mean operative time was 65 minutes. Laparoscopic intraperitoneal ureterocolposuspension is characterized by 87.6% early postoperative success rate. To carry out laparoscopic Burch's is operation is not more difficult than open surgery, but early optimistic results need a longer follow-up to estimate efficacy of this procedure.
