Summary

Stress urinary incontinence is a common condition in women and is often treated with surgical procedures such as transobturator tape (TOT), tension-free vaginal tape (TVT), and Burch colposuspension. Although these procedures are widely used, there is limited information comparing their short-term anatomical and patient-reported outcomes using imaging techniques. The aim of this study is to compare the short-term anatomical and subjective outcomes of TOT, TVT, and Burch colposuspension in women with stress urinary incontinence. Transperineal ultrasonography will be used to assess anatomical changes before surgery and during follow-up. Patient-reported outcomes and clinical findings will also be evaluated. The results of this study may help improve the understanding of surgical outcomes in stress urinary incontinence and support clinical decision-making.

Conditions

PROCEDURE	Tension-Free Vaginal Tape (TVT) Procedure	Placement of a synthetic tape beneath the mid-urethra using a retropubic approach.
PROCEDURE	Burch Colposuspension Procedure	Suspension of the anterior vaginal wall to the iliopectineal (Cooper's) ligament using non-absorbable sutures.
