They were evaluated by means of a cough-induced stress test, 1-hour pad test, Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ), and urodynamic study. They were reevaluated postoperatively every 6 months, and the collected data of more than 1 year\u2019s follow-up were compared with preoperative assessments. <i>Results:<\/i> All patients completed the full 6-month postoperative assessment. However, of the 100 patients, only 61 (25 in the TVT and 36 in the sling group) were followed for more than 1 year. Mean follow-up time was 38.5 and 40 months in the TVT and sling group, respectively. Objective cure was achieved in 22 (88%) of the TVT group and in 30 (83%) of the sling group (p = 0.78) using a cough-induced stress test, and in 76 and 75% of the women in the TVT versus sling group (p = 0.83), respectively, using a 1-hour pad test. Postoperative mean IIQ scores were 44.3 (range 35.5\u201361.5) and 48.5 (range 38.5\u201369.7) in the TVT versus sling group (p = 0.46). Five (20%) and 11 (30%) of the TVT and sling group, respectively, reported some changes in the voiding pattern or posture at more than 1 year\u2019s follow-up. <i>Conclusion:<\/i> There is no significant difference between the TVT and autologous rectus fascia sling procedures in the treatment of urinary stress incontinence at medium-term follow-up. There were changes in the voiding pattern for patients in both groups at more than 1 year postoperatively, which were not evident at early follow-up.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000117794","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,11]],"date-time":"2008-04-11T11:22:29Z","timestamp":1207912949000},"page":"209-214","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":48,"title":["Tension-Free Vaginal Tape and Autologous Rectus Fascia Pubovaginal Sling for the Treatment of Urinary Stress Incontinence: A Medium-Term Follow-Up"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Farzaneh","family":"Sharifiaghdas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nassrin","family":"Mortazavi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F01443610410001722590"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089%2F089277903769013702"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF01901606"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5347%2801%2965463-6"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5347%2801%2962524-2"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fnau.10052"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0094-0143%2805%2970309-8"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00451721"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fnau.10005"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000052531"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0090-4295%2801%2901340-1"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.0001-6349.2004.00464.x"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00192-004-1141-0"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F01.ju.0000169492.96167.fe"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1464-410X.2002.02725.x"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs001920200079"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00192-003-1098-4"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.0001-6349.2004.00524.x"}],"container-title":["Medical Principles and Practice"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/117794","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/117794","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T01:57:25Z","timestamp":1745459845000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000117794"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2008]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000117794","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1011-7571","1423-0151"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1011-7571","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0151","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2008]]}}}
