[Preperitoneal pelviscopic Burch colposuspension using the "Nottingham needle"].

By 40 women with stress incontinence II.-III. degrees we performed a preperitoneal pelviscopic colposuspension (Burch) modified by Gill with the "Nottingham Needle". An urodynamic and sonographic assessment before and 6-9 months after the pelviscopic operation were done. In 38 cases from the 40 women (95%) we saw a good result. The new modification of the pelviscopic colposuspension showed us a low intra- and postoperative morbidity and we consider it a big advantage for obese women.
