Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the objective and subjective cure rates of Ophira mini sling for female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) 36 months after surgery. A total of 58 patients who had SUI and were treated with Ophira mini sling between the years 2014 and 2015 were evaluated retrospectively. The objective cure rate was estimated with the negative cough stress test, and the subjective cure rate was estimated with the answer of “no leakage on coughing, sneezing” to question 3 in urinary distress inventory-6 (UDI-6). Incontinence impact questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7) and pelvic distress inventory-20 (PFDI-20) were also evaluated 36 months after surgery. The overall subjective cure rate was 90% (36/40), and the overall objective cure rate was 87.5% (35/40). The UDI-6, IIQ-7, and PFDI-20 scores improved significantly (P ˂ 0.001). No major complications were noted. Ophira mini sling could be good option for treating female SUI with high objective and subjective cure rates and no major complications.
