Objectives: To assess the postsurgical sonographic parameters of a readjustable sling (RAS) according to urinary incontinence (UI) symptoms after surgery and compare this RAS sonographic pattern with mid-urethral slings (MUS).

Methods: Observational, prospective multicenter study, including women undergoing stress urinary incontinence (SUI) surgery with RAS (Remeex®). The primary outcome was the association between UI symptoms and sonographic parameters measured by two-dimensional transperineal and high-frequency endovaginal ultrasound.

Introduction And Hypothesis: We aimed to evaluate the results of a readjustable sling (Remeex® system) among a selected group of women with complex stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with sonographic hypomobile urethra and assessing failure-related risk factors.

Methods: Observational, longitudinal, prospective cohort study, including patients who underwent surgery with the Remeex® system. The primary outcome was a binary outcome in change of one level or more of the severity of urinary incontinence symptoms according to the intervals of the Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-UI-SF) score (mild, moderate, severe and very severe).
