Results of the abdominal levator-muscle repair in 175 stress incontinent women are presented. Two years after the operation 83% were cured or improved regarding urinary incontinence. The urodynamic evaluation revealed a normalization of the maximum flow rate, residual urine and cystometry in nearly all cases. The abdominal levator-muscle repair carried a low morbidity, and is especially recommended in women with combined urinary and anal incontinence.

Introduction: The aim was to reflect the established interdisciplinary aspects of general/abdominal and plastic surgery by means of a narrative review. Methods: (i) With specific references out of the medical literature and (ii) own clinical and perioperative as well as operating technical and tactical management experiences obtained in surgical daily practice, we present a choice of options for interdisciplinary cooperation that could be food of thought for other surgeons.

Perineal hernia is the protrusion of the intra-abdominal viscera through the pelvic floor. It rarely occurs after abdominoperineal resection but has increasingly occurred after surgical treatment for rectal cancer. A patient was diagnosed as having perineal hernia 10 days after laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Aims: Abdominal hypopressive technique (AHT) is gaining popularity as an alternative to pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) during postpartum. Although, there is no solid evidence for its recommendation.
Methods: We conducted a prospective observational cohort study in a university hospital with 105 primiparae who performed a two-month PFMT or AHT program.
Laparoscopic abdominoperineal excision with trans-abdominal individualized levator transection: interim analysis of a randomized controlled trial.

Department of Surgery, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and Shanghai Minimally Invasive Surgery Center, Shanghai, China.
Aim: Extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPR) is challenging 'conventional' abdominoperineal excision (APR), yet the safety and efficacy of ELAPR is still under debate. We therefore developed a laparoscopic APR with trans-abdominal individualized levator transection (LAPR-TILT) approach and compared the outcome with a conventional laparoscopic APR (CLAPR).
Method: All eligible patients were entered a single-centre randomized controlled trial to compare CLAPR and LAPR-TILT.
