ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the trans and postoperative complications and surgical results of Tension Free Vaginal Tape Obturator System (TVT-O) for stress urinary incontinence treatment in Angeles del Pedregal Hospital in a five year follow-up.
Material and Methods: A retrospective, descriptive case series study with 67 patients was conducted in the Urogynecology Clinic in Hospital Angeles del Pedregal between January 2006 and December 2012. Patients with stress urinary incontinence treated by TVT-O were included. Complications and efficacy of the treatment are described in a 5 year follow-up.
Results: 29.9% of the patients had the urodynamic diagnosis of stress incontinence. The 55.2% of them had no other procedure done than the TVT-O. No transoperative complications were observed, but in the postoperative period, 2 (3.%) patients had urinary retention secondary to overcorrected urethra and 1 (1.5%) with intense groin pain. Two cases (3%) presented tape erosion to vagina at 18 months follow-up, with less than 5mm exposure areas. Average follow-up time was 2 years. 46.26% of patients completed a 5 years follow-up. Subjective and objective cures were obtained in all 67 patients.
Conclusions: Tension free vaginal tape obturator system is a minimally invasive procedure that has excellent results (above 95%) in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence with a low rate of complications. Currently, it can be considered as the gold standard surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence.
