Abstract

This chapter is intended to present a further assessment of surgical interventions for urinary incontinence in women. The intent of this chapter is o build upon data that were previously collated for the ICUD Report of 2009. This chapter updates the current status of surgical interventions for stress urinary incontinence and includes additional data that have been forthcoming regarding new interventions (such as transobturator tapes and single incision slings).

The further enhancement on sections related to clinical research and specific outcomes reporting on clinical trial design has been updated with experience from recently reported multi-institutional trials which assess surgical interventions for incontinence.
