Abstract
OBJECTIVE
This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and complications of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) combined with total hysterectomy under general anesthesia. METHODS: Retrospective comparison of 76 women treated by TVT procedure with total hysterectomy from January 2003 to December 2003. All patients had undergone preoperative evaluation including history taking, physical examination, pelvic examination, 1-hour pad test and urodynamic test, and then were operated under general anesthesia. There were 65 patients combined with LAVH (laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy), 6 patients combined with VTH (vaginal total hysterectomy) and 5 patients combined with TAH (total abdominal hysterectomy). RESULTS: The mean follow up and hospital day were respectively 13 months (range 6-18 months) and 7.6 days (range 6-15 days). Objective and subjective success rate were respectively 97.4% (cured 92.1%, improved 5.3%) and 97.4% (cured 88.1%, improved 9.3%). Preoperative and postoperative 1-hour pad test were respectively 36.4 gm and 4.1 gm (p<0.001). Complications were bladder perforation (6.6%), voiding dysfunction (7.9%) and overactive bladder syndrome (7.9%). CONCLUSION: Conclusively, the cure rate was 88.1% in the TVT combined with hysterectomy when performed under general anesthesia.
