    Abstract:
    To prevent postoperative dysuria, which occurs inevitably after the radical hysterectomy, several surgical procedures have been tried. The principal method is to suture adnexal flaps to the bladder trigone and fundus. Of four procedures so far tried sequentially, the best one was to fix the bladder trigone and to support it with round ligament flaps sutured with the bladder fundus covered by tubal flaps (Type IV). In follow-up studies, Type IV proved more preferable than the other three types or the non-sutured control group in regard to the following aspects: (1) days necessary for the disappearance of residual urine, (2) appearance of urinary sensation, (3) acquirement of urinary sensation, (4) incidence of urinary incontinence, (5) residual urine/bladder capacity ratio, (6) cystometric findings, and others. Effectiveness of our procedures, particularly of Type IV, may be ascribed to the supported bladder trigone and fundus by sutured tissues and to the acquirement of urinary sensation, rather than to the restoration of nervous contact between the bladder and the micturition center in the spinal cord.
