Abstract
We present a case of bladder calculus formation and recurrent urinary stress incontinence following Stamey's operation. A 59-year-old woman had stress urinary incontinence and underwent Stamey's operation (needle suspension of the bladder neck). However, there was no significant postoperative improvement. Ten years later, a bladder calculus and a non-absorbable suture stitch were found incidentally during cystocopy prior to surgical tension-free vaginal taping. The calculus and the suture stitch were removed during the procedure. The patient's urinary incontinence improved significantly and she had no further events after discharge. The present report demonstrates that recurrent urinary stress incontinence may be associated with injury to the lower urinary tract during anti-incontinence surgery.
