[Long-term efficiency of colposuspension of Burch compared with Pereyra's modified technique in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence].

Sixty-five women underwent either the modified Burch-Tanagho colposuspension or the modified Pereyra procedure for surgical correction of stress urinary incontinence. All were evaluated clinically before the surgery and then annually for 5 years. There was a subjective cure rate of 90% versus 86.6%, not statistically significant. Early postoperative normal bladder function and reduced urinary tract infection with the Burch procedure was statistically significant (P < 0.05). No statistically significant differences were found for the intraoperative blood loss and the total hospital stay. The operative time for the Pereyra procedure was significantly short (P < 0.05). The present study has shown that both the Burch colposuspension and the modified Pereyra procedure are highly effective at long term for treating stress urinary incontinence.
