We assessed results of a combined modified rectus fascial sling procedure and augmentation ileocystoplasty in women with neurogenic urinary incontinence.
We prospectively evaluated 21 patients (mean followup 28.6 months).
A total of 20 patients (95.2%) was dry during the day on intermittent catheterization and none had difficulty with catheterization. Subsequently surgery was necessary in 1 case for perforation of the augmented bladder.
A combined modified rectus fascial sling procedure and augmentation ileocystoplasty are safe and effective when all available pharmacological treatments and clean intermittent catheterization have failed.
