Surgical Approaches To Treatment Of Non-Complicated Stress Urinary Incontinence

Abstract

Female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is common and has a significantly negative impact on quality of life. When conservative management strategies such as lifestyle changes, physical therapies, scheduled voiding regimes fail, then surgery is the standard approach. As defined and started to practice invasive surgical procedures at the beginning of 1900, minimally invasive sling operations started to be implemented until today, many methods have been tried. Midurethral sling for its safe, easy application and long-term results to be as successful as other methods, is most commonly used nowadays. Although different surgical procedures have been described, the optimal technique does not yet seem to exist.

Komplike Olmayan Stres Üriner İnkontinans Tedavisinde Cerrahi Yaklaşımlar

Abstract

Kadınlarda stres üriner inkontinans (SÜİ) yaygındır ve yaşam kalitesine önemli ölçüde olumsuz etkisi vardır. Yaşam tarzı değişiklikleri, fizik tedavi, planlı işeme rejimler gibi konservatif tedavi stratejileri başarısız olduğu zaman cerrahi standart yaklaşımdır. 1900 lerin başında tanımlanan ve uygulamaya başlayan invaziv cerrahi girişimlerden günümüzde uygulanmaya başlayan minimal invaziv sling operasyonlara kadar birçok yöntem denenmiştir. Midüretral sling güvenli oluşu, kolay uygulanması ve uzun dönem sonuçlarının diğer yöntemler kadar başarılı olması nedeniyle günümüzde en sık kullanılan yöntemdir. Farklı cerrahi işlemler tanımlanmış olmasına karşın, en uygun tekniği henüz mevcut görünmemektedir.
