Summary: The efficacy, safety, and predictive factors for failure of synthetic mid-urethral slings for the treatment of urinary incontinence in women with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction were assessed. The results showed that synthetic mid-urethral slings may be an acceptable alternative for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in a selected group of patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction, and factors such as age, negative tension-free vaginal tape test, and transobturator route were associated with surgical failure.

Summary: A study using surgical codes from a national registry found that retropubic and obturator slings have lower risks of repeat incontinence surgery compared to polyacrylamide hydrogel injections. Retropubic slings were also found to have superior longevity of the surgical result.

Summary: This study aimed to understand the perspectives and experiences of surgeons in treating female stress urinary incontinence with mesh mid urethral sling (MUS) surgery. The results showed that surgeons had diverse views on the surgery, with some considering it beneficial while others expressed concerns about the risks involved. However, all participants agreed that establishing a good surgeon-patient relationship, obtaining informed consent and providing patient counseling were essential in the implantation of MUSs.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of peri-urethral bulking injections (PBI) on sexual function. The results showed that PBI and mid-urethral sling (MUS) surgery had similar effects on improving sexual function. Both methods improved sexual function in sexually active women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) by reducing the impact of the condition on sexual activity and quality.

Summary: This study describes a modification of the transobturator mid-urethral Altis(R) mini-sling that allows for post-operative adjustment based on patient symptoms to address persistent SUI. Most adjustment procedures could be performed in the clinic, which may be a critical advantage.

Summary: The objective of this study was to compare the cost-effectiveness of urethral bulking PDMS-U with MUS surgery for SUI. The results showed that MUS surgery was more effective in terms of subjective and objective cure rates, while PDMS-U was more cost-effective.

Summary: Mid-urethral sling (MUS) surgeries have significantly improved the management of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). However, postoperative voiding dysfunction remains a common complication. A simple technical modification of delaying the cutting of the tape for two to three days has been shown to allow for perfect tension adjustment and improve treatment outcomes.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the association between 4D-TLUS features of the retropubic mid-urethral sling and post-operative pelvic floor symptoms in women. The results showed that a narrower sling-pubis gap at Valsalva was associated with voiding symptoms, while a SP gap of 10-12 mm and SP angle of 45 degrees-80 degrees were significantly associated with treatment success.

Summary: This study compared three different types of mid-urethral sling surgeries and found that complications were higher than previously thought, emphasizing the importance of follow-up on long-term outcomes. Postoperative complications included a range of symptoms and issues both during and after surgery.

Summary: The objective of this study was to determine whether standardized, intraoperative urethral measurement improves retropubic mid-urethral sling (RPMUS) positioning and if the intraoperative position remains stable at 2 weeks postoperatively. The results showed that intraoperative measurement of urethral mid-point with a Foley catheter did not affect RPMUS sling position.

Summary: The study identified potential technical factors during initial mid-urethral sling (MUS) placement that contribute to subsequent sling revision procedures. The findings from reoperations often revealed evidence of suboptimal initial MUS implantation, highlighting the importance of surgical technique and training in minimizing postoperative complications.

Summary: The study aims to review patients with chronic urinary symptoms and remote urethral sling surgery to determine the prevalence and predictors of obstruction. The results show that 60% of patients met the definition for obstruction, and those with obstruction had poorer performance in detrusor pressure and maximum urinary flow rate.

Summary: The efficacy and safety of ultralight, polypropylene urogynecological tape in the surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence and mixed urinary incontinence were evaluated. The study showed success rates over 80% for both retropubic and transobturator tape methods, with no tape-related adverse events or infections reported.

Summary: The study demonstrates that the Remeex(R) system is highly effective in treating male stress urinary incontinence, regardless of severity. Most patients achieved good dryness postoperatively, with high implant retention rates and a one-third adjustment rate.
