Resumen

Introducción: El sistema TVT (Tension-free Vaginal Tape) es la técnica quirúrgica de elección en los últimos años de la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo femenina (IUE), dada la facilidad de la técnica, buenos resultados clínicos y escasas complicaciones

Material y métodos

Desde Abril de 1999 a Marzo 2004 se han implantado en nuestro servicio 100 sistemas TVT con revisión de los resultados a los 6 meses, y un seguimiento medio de 10,36 meses (R: 1-54 meses), con una pérdida de seguimiento en el 11% de los casos. Todas las mujeres estudiadas presentaban incontinencia de esfuerzo, siendo la edad media de 56,5 años (30-80). Un 12% habían sido intervenidas previamente de IUE. Presentan cirugía previa del suelo pélvico 21 pacientes. En un 17% de los casos se realizó TVT asociado a otra técnica quirúrgica: 15% cistorrafia anterior, 1% corrección de rectocele, 1% cirugía compleja del suelo pélvico que incluye TVT, corrección de cistocele e histerectomía

Resultados

Obtenemos un 65% de éxitos (comprobación objetiva de la ausencia de escape por parte del médico y referencia subjetiva de la paciente), un 17% de mejoría (disminución clara de escapes por parte de la paciente y mejoría subjetiva) y un 7% de fracaso de la técnica. El porcentaje global de aparición de urgencia de novo posquirúrgica es del 9%. Existieron un 12% de complicaciones; 3 casos (3%) de perforación vesical, 2 de ellos intraoperatorios y 1 diferida junto con infección de la herida quirúrgica; 3 episodios (3%) de residuos altos en el postoperatorio inmediato, resueltos con autosondajes, y un caso de RAO (1%) dado de alta con cistostomía suprapúbica; un caso (1%) de peritonitis química tras retirada de talla vesical resuelta con tratamiento conservador; dos casos (2%) de extrusión vaginal de la bandeleta, con sección de la porción de malla exteriorizada en ambos casos; un (1%) paciente presenta hematoma hipogástrico que se resuelve con medidas conservadoras; un 1 % de los pacientes (1 caso) presentó molestias pélvicas subcrónicas con resolución espontánea

Conclusiones

Consideramos el sistema TVT una técnica quirúrgica eficaz en el tratamiento de la incontinencia urinaria femenina de esfuerzo. Es una técnica sencilla, con baja estancia hospitalaria y escasas complicaciones

Abstract

Introduction: The TVT system is the most common surgical technique of female stress urinary incontinence, because of the simplicity, good clinical results and rare complications

Material and methods

From april, 1999 to march, 2004, it has been done in our department 100 TVT systems with the revision of the result over the six following months. The average follow-up rate was 10, 36 months (R: 1-54 months) and looses mean the 11% of the cases. All the patients presented stress incontinence and their average age was 56,6 years old (30-80). The 12% of the cases have been previously operated of urinary incontinence. 21 patients presented previous surgery of pelvic floor. In the 17% of the cases, TVT systems was associated to another surgical technique: 15% of them was operated of cystocele, 1% of them had surgical correction of rectocele, 1% of them had a strong surgery of pelvic floor, that included TVT system, correction of pelvic floor and hysterectomy

Results

We obtained 65% of successful cases, defined as objective confirmation of absence of looses from the observer and the subjective reference of the patient; 17% of clear improvement (clear decrease of looses from the patient and subjective improvement) and 7% of failure of the technique. The total percentage of appearance of novo post-surgery urgency is 9%. There were complications in the 12% of the cases: there were three cases of bladder perforation, two of them intra-operative and one of them deferred and associated to an infection of surgical wound; another three cases of residue in the immediate post-operative that were resolved with bladder catheterization; one case of acute urinary retention that was treated with bladder catheterization with suprapubic cistostomy; one case of chemical peritonitis corrected with a conservative treatment; two cases of vaginal extrusion of sling, which were resolved with the section of the outer sling; one patient presented a hipogastric hematoma resolved with conservative measures; and one patient presented pelvic discomfort with spontaneous resolution

Conclusions

We consider the TVT system as an effective surgical technique in the treatment of the female stress urinary incontinence. It is a simple technique with a short stay in the hospital and rare complications.
