Abstract

Thirty cases of urinary incontinence and genital prolapse have been treated using Bologna's method. The authors describe this operation. The post-operative controls were based on the clinical state of the patient and in ten cases on the urodynamic tests. Anatomical result was very satisfactory. In all but one case the abdominal pressure transmission defect to the upper urethral was corrected without deterioration of maximal urethral pressure.
