This prospective randomised study involved 52 female patients suffering from recurrent stress urinary incontinence, objectively confirmed by means of clinical incontinence tests and urodynamic examinations. They alternatively underwent colposuspension according to Burch or suburethral sling procedure surgery. Urodynamic and sonographic examinations were carried out before and 2.5 years (i.e. within a range of 2-3) after surgery according to Burch or suburethral sling procedure. There was no significant difference between the two methods with respect to subjective and objective rate of cure, which amounted to 85% of the cases involving colposuspension and 88% of cases involving the suburethral sling procedure. Both methods resulted in a significant improvement of the depression quotient and a significant elevation of the internal urethral meatus (p < 0.05). Apart from an aggravation of urge symptoms in both groups, the patients with surgery according to Burch tended towards enterocele and rectocele in the medium range, whereas urination disorders had to be accepted in the patients operated on according to the sling procedure in the long term.

Transvaginal Retropubic Versus Transobturator Midurethral Sling in the Treatment of Recurrent Stress Urinary Incontinence.
Cureus
December 2024
Gynecology, Unidade Local de Saúde de Coimbra, Coimbra, PRT.
Introduction: Transvaginal retropubic (TVT-R) and transobturator (TVT-O) midurethral slings are the main surgical options for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Surgical indications for each of them are defined by clinical and history presentation. These techniques play a particular role in SUI recurrence after a previous urinary incontinence surgery, although there are few studies comparing their efficacy.

Background: Long term studies have shown the Latarjet procedure to be successful in preventing re-dislocation in primary and recurrent anterior inferior shoulder instability. It provides stability through the sling effect of the conjoint tendon and the bone block. It is unclear whether augmentation with capsular repair provides an added benefit or leads to restricted range of external rotation.

Department of Urology, Freeman Hospital Newcastle-upon-Tyne UK; Translational and Clinical Research Institute, Newcastle University Newcastle-upon-Tyne UK.
Background And Objective: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI), defined as any involuntary leakage of urine associated with physical activity, remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. This review aims to provide an updated overview of the prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment of SUI in women, drawing upon recent evidence-based literature and clinical guidelines.
Methods: A systematic search of the MEDLINE database was conducted to identify only the most up-to-date and relevant studies published up to February 26, 2024, including the reference ESTER systematic review.
Characterisation of pregnancy-induced alterations in apolipoproteins and their associations with maternal metabolic risk factors and offspring birth outcomes: a preconception and longitudinal cohort study.

Background: Apolipoproteins as an integral part of lipoproteins are crucial for the transport and metabolism of lipids. However, there is a lack of longitudinal studies to quantify the concentrations of maternal apolipoproteins from preconception to postpartum and their associations with maternal metabolic health and offspring birth outcomes.
Methods: Quantification of apolipoproteins was performed on maternal plasma samples (N = 243 trios) collected at preconception, 26-28 weeks' pregnancy, and three months postpartum in the Singapore PREconception Study of long-Term maternal and child Outcomes (S-PRESTO) cohort study.
Long-term Outcomes of Laparoscopic Sacrohysteropexy with SERATEX SlimSling Mesh: A Retrospective Case Series.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Ziv Medical Center, Safed, Israel.
Introduction And Hypothesis: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery has evolved toward minimally invasive techniques. Laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (LSHP) is associated with reduced morbidity and lower mesh exposure risks. This study evaluates the long-term outcomes of LSHP using the SERATEX SlimSling mesh for isolated uterine prolapse.
