The object was to evaluate clinical outcome of the midurethral sling procedures in the elderly compared with middle-aged women.
A total of 266 women who underwent midurethral sling procedures with at least follow-up greater than 6 months were included in the study. Patients were divided as the elderly group (65 years old or older, n = 60) and the middle-aged group (45-64 years old, n = 206).
Although postoperative urge symptoms were more prevalent in the elderly group (25.0%) than in the middle-aged group (6.3%), there were no significant differences between the two groups for the rates of postoperative urge incontinence (p = 0.159). Stress incontinence was cured by 91.3% in the middle-aged group and 85.0% in the elderly group, respectively (p = 0.158).
Age does not seem to be a significant risk factor for failure of midurethral sling procedures.
本研究旨在评估与中年女性相比，老年女性行尿道中段吊带术的临床效果。
本研究纳入了266例行尿道中段吊带术且随访时间至少超过6个月的女性患者。患者被分为老年组（65岁及以上，n = 60）和中年组（45 - 64岁，n = 206）。
尽管老年组术后尿急症状的发生率（25.0%）高于中年组（6.3%），但两组术后尿急失禁的发生率无显著差异（p = 0.159）。中年组和老年组的压力性尿失禁治愈率分别为91.3%和85.0%（p = 0.158）。
年龄似乎并非尿道中段吊带术失败的重要危险因素。
