  • Title: Bladder neck suspension for stress incontinence as an outpatient procedure.
    Author: Heaton JP, Morales A, VanCott GF, Grennell HJ.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 1987 Feb; 14(1):209-15. PubMed ID: 3811054.
    Abstract:
    Simplified but effective operative techniques have made surgery for stress incontinence less hazardous and traumatic and more acceptable to these patients. Transvaginal needle vesical neck suspensions, by avoiding splitting of the fascia of the abdominal wall, decrease postoperative discomfort and convalescence. Various modifications of the original Pereyra needle vesical neck suspension are currently in use. Probably the simplest and most effective is a technique reported by Raz, which the authors employ as an outpatient procedure and describe here.
