Randomized Trial of Single-Incision Midurethral Sling And Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension: Postoperative Surgical Outcomes and Complications

Study Objective: Various retropubic and midurethral sling techniques have shown high cure rates in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The aim of this study was to compare single-incision midurethral sling (SIMS), and laparoscopic Burch colposuspension (LBC) procedures in patients with SUI in terms of the effectiveness, patient satisfaction, surgical complications and results.
Design: This is a prospective randomised study.
Setting: A university tertiary hospital
Patients: Forty patients with clinically and/or urodynamically proven SUI who agreed to surgical treatment were randomized to the SIMS and LBC groups and included in the study.
Interventions: Patients were treated with SIMS and LBC operations.
