Utilizing preoperative 20-minute pad testing with vaginal gauze packing for indicating concomitant midurethral sling during cystocele repair.
Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol. 2014 Jan; 172:127-30.EJ

Abstract

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the feasibility of using preoperative 20-minute pad testing with vaginal gauze packing for cystocele reduction to indicate a concomitant midurethral sling during cystocele repair.

STUDY DESIGN

Retrospective review of the records of consecutive women with pelvic organ prolapse quantification≥stage II symptomatic cystocele who visited the urogynecologic outpatient clinics and underwent cystocele repair between July 2005 and December 2010. Only patients who underwent preoperative urodynamic studies and 20-minute pad testing with vaginal gauze packing for cystocele reduction were enrolled.

RESULTS

Twenty-one patients did not demonstrate any stress urinary incontinence. For evident stress urinary incontinence (>1g pad weight before reduction), the criterion of ≥8g pad weight before reduction was chosen for concomitant midurethral sling. For patients with occult stress urinary incontinence (≤1g pad weight before reduction), the criterion of ≥8g pad weight after reduction was chosen as an indication for concomitant midurethral sling. Among 22 patients with evident stress urinary incontinence (<8g) without concomitant midurethral sling, only one patient (4.5%) received a midurethral sling during the follow-up period (median follow-up interval: 30.5 months). Among 21 patients with occult stress incontinence but <8g after reduction without concomitant midurethral sling, only one patient (4.8%) received midurethral sling during the follow-up period (median follow-up interval: 38 months).

CONCLUSIONS

A preoperative 20-minute pad test with vaginal gauze packing for cystocele reduction is a feasible and practical method to decide for a concomitant midurethral sling.
