[S. Raz' method of bladder suspension and treatment of cystocele in urinary stress incontinence (short-term results)].

We performed the transvaginal approach described by S. Raz for stress urinary incontinence and cystocele. 13 patients with cystocele and stress urinary incontinence underwent the four corner Bladder neck suspension 12 patients with stress urinary incontinence alone underwent simple bladder neck suspension. After a median follow-up of 4,1 months 92% were cured of incontinence. Cystoceles grade II and III were completely reduced. These results are comparable with abdominal approach for less morbidity and shorter hospital stay.
