Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Although drug treatment.physics-behavior therapy,and postoperative therapy have been commonly used to treat stress urinary incontinence(SUI),there is still no satisfactory treatment at present.OBJECTlVE:To build a stable animal model simulating stress urinary incontinence(SUI)by bilateral transaction of pudendal nerve and nerves innervating pelvic floor muscles,including iliococcygeous muscle and pubococcygeous muscle.METHODS:A total of 18 6-week-old female SD rats weighing(1 99.44±8.41)g were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal,model,and sham-surgery groups,with 6 rats in each group.Rats in the model group underwent bilateral transaction of pudendal nerves and nerves innervating iliococcygeous/pubococcygeous muscles,while rats in the sham-surgery group had same procedures except nerve transaction.The normal group did not undergo any operation.Each rat was subjected to measure leak point pressure(LPP)at 2 weeks after the operation.After the measurement of LPP,cross sections of connection area of bladder and urethra were sent to histology.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:One rat in the sham-surgery group died at 1 week after the operation.The LPP of model group decreased significantly by approximately 33%compared with the normal group(P＜0 05):however,there was no significant difference in LPP between sham-surgery and normal groups(P＞0.05).The results of histology showed loosely arrangement and atrophy of urethral sttriated muscle fibers in rats of the model group.Bilateral transaction of pudendal nerves and nerves innervating to iliococcygeous/pubococcygeous muscles resulted in SUI in rats stably.
