Does minimally invasive hysterectomy add benefit for patients undergoing transobturator tape procedure
Abstract
Objectives: Stress urinary incontinence is a severe problem needs to be addressed especially in elder patient population. Usually pelvic relaxation is an accompanying issue either corrected alone or concomittant with incontinence treatment. This study aimed to find out whether concomittant hysterectomy makes any difference in transobturator tape incontinence surgery outcomes.
Material and Methods: This study included 66 patients with isolated stress urinary incontinence. Two groups formed either with transobturator tape placement alone or transobturator tape placement with minimally invasive hysterectomy. Treatment outcomes evaluated with UDI-6 and IIQ-7 questionnaires.
Results: It is found that there is no additional benefit to urinary incontinence treatment with hysterectomy performed in same session with transobturator tape placement.
Conclusion: Minimally invasive hysterectomy for pelvic relaxation surgery can be performed safely and knowing that it won’t change the outcomes of transobturator tape placement.
