[Surgical colpo-suspension (Burch's method) in the management of female stress incontinence].

Colposuspension operation was carried out with Burch's technique for the treatment of stress incontinence of women. The results and experiences of the authors are described. Detailed urodynamic examination was carried out before the operation. Fifty-five operations of this type were performed during three and a half years: complete continence was reached in 51 cases and 4 cases showed improvement. The authors are of the opinion that this surgical technique offers better results than the vaginally performed interventions.
