In a prospective study of sonographic and radiographic methodologies we compared morphologic bladder data in 30 patients before and after stress incontinence surgery. 18 women were subject to colposuspension according to Burch due to recurrent stress incontinence, 12 women underwent anterior colporrhaphy. Visualisation of bladder, urethra and beta-angle was adequate with both methods. The good visualisation of the anatomical and functional situation of the vesico-urethral area is a major benefit of introital sonography.

Objective: This study evaluates the outcomes of modified transvaginal mesh (TVM) Surelift in managing advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP) over a 3-year follow-up period, focusing on surgical success, functional improvement, and sonographic findings.

Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 99 women who underwent Surelift System surgery for advanced POP Stage III and IV between July 2018 to January 2020. Objective evaluation included Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q), multichannel urodynamic (UDS), and introital 2D ultrasonographic measurement.

Article Synopsis
  • Older age is linked to higher rates of urinary incontinence, and this study examines how age affects outcomes of transobturator mid-urethral sling (TOS) surgery in women with stress urinary incontinence.
  • A total of 464 women, categorized by age groups, were analyzed for clinical and ultrasound outcomes one year post-surgery, indicating that older women often reported more urinary incontinence issues post-surgery.
  • The study concluded that TOS surgery is generally effective and safe for women of all ages, but older women may experience a looser and higher position of the sling post-op.

Clinical application of a fixed reference line in the ultrasound quantitative diagnosis of female pelvic organ prolapse.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated a new ultrasound technique to better assess pelvic organ prolapse (POP) using a standardized method with a transluminal probe.
  • The method involved comparing specific anatomical points related to POP with ultrasound imaging, showing strong correlations in the anterior and middle pelvic compartments.
  • While the results were promising for most areas, the technique faced challenges in the posterior compartment, but it successfully identified some cases of intestinal hernia and rectocele.

Objectives: Determine whether introital pelvic floor sonography with transvaginal probe (PFS-TV) can be an independent method in the diagnosis of genuine stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and to create a ultrasonographic diagnostic model to objectify diagnostic process.

Material And Methods: The study involved 315 patients with a history of urinary incontinence problems. Based on the clinical examination and urodynamic examination, the final diagnosis was made.
