Brief Summary:
This study is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluating whether changing the width of the surgical tape (mesh) used in transobturator tape (TOT) surgery improves treatment results in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Two mesh widths are being compared: a 1.2 cm mesh (new method) and a 1.0 cm mesh (standard method). The main goal is to find out if the wider mesh leads to better urinary control and fewer complications. Participants will be followed for one year to measure cure rates, symptom improvement, and satisfaction.
Detailed Description:
This is a prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect of mesh width on surgical outcomes in transobturator tape (TOT) procedures for women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). A total of 106 participants will be randomized using a computer-generated allocation into two groups receiving either a 1.2 cm mesh (intervention group) or a 1.0 cm mesh (standard procedure).
The procedures will be conducted by a single experienced surgeon using a monofilament polypropylene mesh to ensure standardization. Surgical technique, anesthesia protocols, and perioperative management will be identical in both groups.
Primary outcome is objective cure, defined as negative stress test at 6 months. Secondary outcomes include symptom improvement (ICIQ-SF), mesh-related complications (erosion, infection, retention), and patient satisfaction assessed via structured Likert survey.
Follow-up visits are scheduled at 1 week, 1 month, and 1 year. Postoperative assessments will be conducted by a blinded evaluator. The study aims to evaluate whether wider mesh width provides superior anatomical support and reduces complication rates in comparison to standard mesh.
