Abstract

The most common cause of stress urinary incontinence in the women is the characteristic abnormality of the anatomic supports of the vesical neck and proximal urethra. For the successful surgical management of stress urinary incontinence, these abnormal anatomic defects should be corrected adequately. Herine, we report 5 cases of Marshall-Marchetti operation and 2 cases of modified Pereyra procedure for stress urinary incontinence. The follow-up periods of 7 cases range from 6 months to 4 years. The mean length of catheter drainage postoperatively was 9.4 days, with a range of 5 to 15 days. All cases had excellent results without postoperative urinary retention or urinary tract infection. But, only one case undergoing Marshall-Marchetti operation recurred urinary incontinence 3 months later.
