About

Transperineal ultrasonography is gaining importance in preoperative and postoperative evaluation of the patient with urinary incontinence with allowing well detailed information about the anterior compartment.

There is little evidence that transperineal sonography can aid surgeons to predict the success or failure after mid-urethral slings.

We aimed to investigate the efficacy of sonography in mini-sling operations to predict the success or failure.

Full description

Women who are scheduled for anti-incontinence operation due to their stress urinary incontinence will be pre- and postoperatively evaluated by transperineal and introital ultrasound.

Patients will be followed for at least 1 year.

Enrollment: 64 patients

Sex: Female

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Patients with clinically stress urinary incontinence
• Patients who claim that their condition severely impair their quality of life

Exclusion criteria

• Patients who have unregulated diabetes mellitus (they will be included after appropriate and sustainable blood glucose regulation)
• Patients who have neurological condition that may affect the incontinence
• Patients who have psychiatric disease that may affect the subjective evaluation.
