Introduction And Hypothesis: Our primary objective was to study objective and subjective outcomes of patients with urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) following Solyx™ at 3-year follow-up. Our secondary objective was to evaluate ultrasonographic tape and bladder neck position and mobility.
Methods: Records of 88 women who received Solyx™ surgery between September 2015 and December 2017 were reviewed.
Introduction And Hypothesis: Our primary objective was to study outcomes of patients with intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) following mid-urethral slings (MUS) at 1-year. Our secondary objective was to delineate factors affecting success in these patients.
Methods: Six hundred eighty-eight patients who had MUS between January 2004 and April 2017 were reviewed retrospectively; 48 women were preoperatively diagnosed with ISD.
Patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) often have accompanying lower urinary tract symptoms. Symptoms such as stress urinary incontinence(SUI-) and detrusor overactivty(DO) would co-exist in a number of patients. Management entails relieving the obstructive element.

Treatment approach from either abdominal or vaginal route have its own pros and cons. The study aims to present the anatomical, clinical and lower urinary tract symptom outcomes of women with VVF.

Materials And Methods: This was a prospective cohort study in patients with POP stage ≥ 3 and maximum urethral closure pressure (MUCP) <60 cmHO and functional urethral length (FUL) <2 cm. Patients were divided into PRS and PRS + MUS groups.
Introduction And Hypothesis: Our primary objective is to determine the presence of SUI at 6-12 months after surgery. The secondary objective is to determine the objective and subjective outcomes of POP.
Methods: A retrospective study conducted between February 2015 and July 2016 at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital.
Aim: To determine the impact of vaginal pelvic reconstructive surgery (PRS) on detrusor underactivity (DU) patients having advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP).
Methods: A retrospective study of patients who underwent PRS for advanced POP (POP-Q ≥ 3) with DU. Data regarding preoperative evaluation, surgical procedure, and post-operative management were collated.

Study Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the MiniArc single-incision sling in the treatment of urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) through 5 years.
Design: Retrospective observational study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).
Setting: Tertiary referral center.
