Purpose: Recently sling procedures have been shown to be effective in the treatment of all types of incontinence. in this study we evaluated the role of preoperative Valsalva leak point pressure (VLPP) in predicting the outcome of sling surgery.Materials and Methods: We prospectively evaluated 174 consecutive patients who underwent a distal polypropylene sling procedure for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Using SEAPI scores patients were divided by VLPP into group 1-60 patients who did not leak on urodynamics, group 2-27 patients with VLPP greater than 80 cm H2O, group 3-71 patients with VLPP 30 to 80 cm H2O and group 4-16 patients with VLPP less than 30 cm H2O. Surgical outcomes were determined by symptom, bother and qu...
