About

Urinary incontinence after surgical correction of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) could occur. This is a condition that decreases both patients' satisfaction and quality of life. Reports on the prevalence of urinary incontinence after POP surgery are controversial. Concomitant surgery for incontinence could reduce this prevalence, whereas it increases treatment costs and the likelihood of surgical complications. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to know the exact prevalence of urinary incontinence after POP surgery in our population and the potential risk factors associated with this condition.
