Abstract
To assess the efficacy of a modified technique in stress incontinence, that is vaginal wall sling reinforced with two layers of vaginal wall sutured inferiorly. 27 patients with Type II incontinence, 4 with Type III and 14 with mixed type who completed two years follow up were included into the study. Cure, improvement and failure rates were 84.4%, 8.9% and 6.7% respectively. Temporary retention is observed in 30 of the patients, vaginal stenosis and pelvic pain in 1 and suture granuloma in 5 of the patients. Reinforced insitu vaginal wall sling which gives additional support to urethral hammock inferiorly offers a better solution to both types of stress incontinence.Entities:
