Results:
We prospectively evaluated 10 patients with urodynamic stress
incontinence, two of them had previous colposuspension, who underwent
LMAFS. Operative time ranged from 90-150 minutes. All women were
discharged home 24 hours after surgery after they resumed normal
voiding. No perioperative complications were reported. All patients were
reviewed at 12 months post operatively. At 12 months, all patients
reported cure of their SUI symptoms, defined according to their answers
to the ICIQ-SF questions 3 and 4 as “never” on the question of “how
often do you leak urine?”, and “none” on the question “how much
urine do you usually leak?”. None of the participants reported
complaints of voiding dysfunction nor new onset overactive bladder. All
patients reported feeling “much better’ or “very much better” on the
PGI-I questionnaire. We reported no wound related complications nor
blood transfusions.
