[Early and late results of Stoeckel-Kraatz's modified loop plastic surgery in stress incontinence in the female].

Stress incontinence of women is a widespread and sophisticated problem. Its incidence is between five and 20 per cent in medium and advanced age. In the last two years, 34 patients received treatment modified after the sling operation which had been inaugurated by Stoeckel and Kraatz. This surgical approach had been reserved for severe forms and recurrences of urinary incontinence. The surgical technique is described in this paper. Surgical action action had been preceded by complex gynaecological, neurological, and urological examinations. Sixteen patients have been without complaint for more than a year and six for more than half a year. The remaining twelve are continent, too, but require further observation. Postoperative urodynamic checks revealed proper function of the lower urinary tract.

[High colpocleisis in the treatment of postradiation vesicovaginal fistulas].

Surgical treatment with application of the modified technique of high colpocleisis according to Latsko was performed in 174 patients aged 26-72 with postradiation vesicovaginal fistulas. The latter developed 6 months to 26 years after radiotherapy. The operation resulted in restoration of the urinary bladder capacity and spontaneous urination.

[Transposition of the distal urethra in surgical treatment of recurrent lower urinary tract infection in women].

One of the procedures used in surgical treatment of recurrent infections of the lower urinary tracts is transposition of the distal urethra. This procedure was used in 27 females. Persistent clinical recovery was achieved in 81.5% of cases. One patient withdrew. One patient (3.7%) did not respond, 11.1% required further conservative treatment. Transposition of distal urethra improves treatment outcomes in recurrent infections of the lower urinary tracts in cases when the disease is caused by vaginal ectopia or hypermotility of the external urethra.

[Combination surgery in radical nephrectomy].

In 18 of 487 patients (11 males, 7 females) operated for renal cancer, radical nephrectomy was made simultaneously with cholecystectomy (n = 14) and prosthetic repair of the abdominal aorta (n = 4). A transabdominal approach was used in all the cases. Duration of radical nephrectomies from the transabdominal approach varies from 95 to 180 min while simultaneous operations lasted from 130 to 228 min. Cholecystectomy increased duration of the operations by 25-55, aortic repair--by 60-90 min. Conduction of concomitant operations had no negative effect on the course of postoperative period or on the number of complications. 18 cases of simultaneous operations (radical nephrectomy and cholecystectomy or aortic repair) showed that there was neither increased number of complications nor duration of hospital stay. Cholecystectomy can be made from the same incision as radical nephrectomy whereas aortic repair demands the middle approach which is not convenient for performance of radical nephrectomy.

[The diagnostic value of combined urodynamic study in different forms of urinary incontinence in women].

Diagnostic potential of urodynamic tests was studied in 279 females with combined and complicated enuresis. 90 healthy females and 21 cadavers served control. The statistical analysis covered the following urodynamic parameters: cystometric volume, detrusor pressure in cystometric volume, functional urethral length, maximal intraurethral pressure, fluctuations of maximal intraurethral pressure. Isolated measurements of cystometric volume, functional urethral length and maximal intraurethral pressure failed to provide sufficient diagnostic information in effort enuresis, whereas cystometry was most efficient in diagnosis of detrusor instability. Registration of urethral pressure fluctuations in the maximal point allows detection of urethral instability. Combined urodynamic examination can not be fully rejected in patients with complicated and combined enuresis.
