Using our urodynamic protocol to manage the urethra at transvaginal pelvic organ prolapse repair the risk of intervention due to obstruction is essentially equal to the risk of intervention due to stress urinary incontinence when no clinical, urodynamic or occult stress urinary incontinence was present and no mid urethral synthetic sling was placed. In patients who report clinical stress urinary incontinence preoperatively despite no urodynamic or occult stress urinary incontinence there is a much higher rate of further intervention for stress urinary incontinence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
