Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of biomaterial sling in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI), so as to explore the possibility of replacing traditional synthetic materials with biomaterials in SUI surgery. Methods Clinical data of 22 SUI patients undergoing retropubic mid-urethral sling surgery in our hospital during Jan.and Dec.2023 were retrospectively collected. Perioperative parameters were analyzed, and all patients were followed up for more than one year. The quality of life was assessed using the incontinence impact questionnaire-short form-7 (IIQSF-7), numerical rating scale (NRS), and urogenital distress inventory-short form-6 (UDI-6). Results All 22 operations were successfully completed. The follow-up was 13-25 (mean 15.2±4.6) months, operation time (47.0±11.1) minutes, hospital stay (0.8± 0.2) days, and pain duration (6.1±4.9) days. One year after surgery, all patients'NRS, IIQSF-7 and UDI-6 scores were significantly reduced (P<0.001). One week after surgery, all patients were improved. No sling exposure or urinary tract infection was found during the follow-up. Conclusion Biomaterial sling is an effective and relatively safe method for the treatment of female SUI, demonstrating satisfactory short-term outcomes. However, the long-term effects still need further research.
