ABSTRACT
Objective In contrast to the well-recognized benefit of trans-obturator tape (TOT) to urine continence, if the TOT-enhanced urethra resistance results in modified voiding functions in stress urinary incontinence (SUI) patients is not adequately investigated.
Design and setting Urodynamic investigations were retrograde analyzed in a tertiary referral hospital.
Population A total of 26 female SUI patients
Methods The area enclosed by the loop trajectory (Apv) in a pressure-volume analysis (PVA) which represent the work performed in each voiding cycle was retrospectively analyzed
