Long-term results of fascial sling procedure

In a retrospective study 108 patients (average age: 56.5 years) could be evaluated, who were treated with a fascial sling plasty because of pure genuine stress incontinence (n=90) or combined stress/urge incontinence (n=18). 72 patients (66.6%) had recurrent incontinence after previous surgery. The average follow-up was 5 years.
