摘要
Objectives Mesh midurethral slings (MUSs) are safe, effective treatments for female stress urinary incontinence (SUI), but many companies have ceased production because of controversies surrounding transvaginal mesh. To determine if introduction of MUS has increased the complication rate associated with SUI surgery, we compared women undergoing SUI surgery in the MUS era to those who had surgery prior its introduction. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of a statewide hospital discharge database. Stress urinary incontinence surgeries from 1987 to 1996 and 2007 to 2013 were identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes. Results A total of 30,723 SUI surgeries were performed during the study periods. After 2006, slings accounted for 91.8% of SUI surgeries. Patients were older (54.5 vs 53.0 years, P < 0.001) and sicker (22.6% vs 9.7% had >= 1 comorbid condition, P < 0.0001). Blood transfusion was more common in the MUS era (1.2% vs 0.4%, P < 0.001) however, other complications were either similar between groups or less common in the MUS era including 30-day readmission (2.5% vs 2.4%, P = 0.543), reoperation for urinary retention (0.1% vs 0.2%, P < 0.0375), and wound infection (0.1% vs 0.5%, P < 0.001), despite more concomitant prolapse surgeries (69.0 vs 26.9%, P < 0.001) and hysterectomies (53.0 vs 35.4%, P < 0.001) in the MUS era. Hospital stays were shorter after 2006 (1.0 vs 3.0 days, P < 0.001), and fewer women required reoperation for SUI within 2 years (0.5% vs 1.8%, P < 0.001). Conclusions Following introduction of MUS, women who underwent SUI surgery were slightly older with more medical comorbidities yet did not appear to experience increased surgical complications. Fewer women underwent reoperation for recurrent SUI, and hospital stays were shorter, suggesting an improvement in care. This study supports the continued availability and use of MUSs.
