Abstract
LOPEZ TOVAR, Marco; FERMIN, Melissa; MARQUEZ, Sikiú and MARQUEZ, Daniel. Evaluación de los resultados de la cura de incontinencia urinaria por técnica de Burch y cabestrillos suburetrales sin tensión. Rev Obstet Ginecol Venez [online]. 2017, vol.77, n.1, pp.5-10. ISSN 0048-7732.
Objective: To assess the positive and negative outcomes of both transobturator (TOT) and tension-free vaginal tape (TVT), regardless of the different meshes and existing types of needles on the market. Methods: A non-experimental, documentary, retrospective, correlational and longitudinal study was performed. The population was constituted by all patients diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), who attended at General Surgery, Urology and Urogynaecology Service of the hospital Dr. Jose Ignacio Baldo, between January 2002 and April 2012. The sample was represented only by patients who underwent surgical cure of UI by Burch technique or tension-free suburethral slings. Results: The estimated proportion of satisfactory developments with the use of the Burch colposuspension technique was of 87.9% and with the use of tension-free suburethral slings was of 97,3%. The transoperative complications in Burch colposuspension technique was 3, 0 % and in tension-free suburethral slings was of 10.8%. The postoperative complications in the case of Burch colposuspension technique reached 33.3% and in the case of tension-free suburethral slings was 37.8%. Conclusions: No statistically significant differences were found between the two surgical techniques evaluated in relation to proportion of successful developments, transoperative and postoperative complications.
