TL;DR: A multicenter, randomized clinical trial comparing two procedures--the pubovaginal sling, using autologous rectus fascia, and the Burch colposuspension--among women with stress incontinence results in a higher rate of successful treatment of stressincontinence but also greater morbidity than the Burches.

TL;DR: For women with uncomplicated, demonstrable stress urinary incontinence, preoperative office evaluation alone was not inferior to evaluation with urodynamic testing for outcomes at 1 year, and these changes did not lead to significant between-group differences in treatment selection or outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple sclerosis and the urologist
TL;DR: An updated reference detailing the neurological and Urological state of the art approach to multiple sclerosis with special emphasis on the pathology and physiology, effects on the genitourinary tract, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment of neurological and urological manifestations is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Refining diagnosis of anatomic female bladder outlet obstruction: comparison of pressure-flow study parameters in clinically obstructed women with those of normal controls.
TL;DR: Improve the definition of pressure-flow study cutoff values for anatomic female bladder outlet obstruction by comparing these parameters in women with clinical obstruction with those of normal controls by using normal controls rather than an incontinent control population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure flow analysis may aid in identifying women with outflow obstruction
TL;DR: Pressure flow cutoff values are proposed for identifying women with bladder outlet obstruction although they should be used only in conjunction with the overall clinical situation as neither pressure flow data only nor clinical symptoms alone may be sufficient for diagnosing obstruction in women.
