Colposuspension in girls with refractory stress-incontinence, a critical evaluation of a last-resort treatment
Although 84% of children still experienced any degree DUI after a mean duration of 8 years after BC, most patients do not regret the decision of surgical treatment. Given the limited benefit and invasiveness of the procedure, however, we discourage to routinely perform BC in children with refractory DUI and SUI. Our results should be taken into account when discussing expectations and chances of success.
