[Treatment of stress incontinence].

This is an introducing survey at the symposium "New techniques in gynaecology and obstetrics" held 25th and 26th of October, 1990, in Rostock. Surgery of urinary incontinence is not sufficient despite improving choice of methods. Therefore each new solution is welcome. In our times suprapubic colposuspension operations are the most interesting ones. Using fibrin sealing could be advantageous, if it would be possible, to limit sealing area and following tissue consolidation to the pubourethral ligaments. Sealing of fascial sutures and avoiding of vaginal adhesions in cases of vaginal repair would be imaginable. As alternative mobile vaginal suspension by means of fascial strips is demonstrated.
