- The aims of this study were to investigate the reasons why some women with long-term urinary incontinence (UI) seek professional help whereas others do not, their experiences and satisfactions with the healthcare services, and how women deal with their incontinence. In total, 95 women aged 23–51 years with persistent UI (median 10 years, range 6–20 years) were included in this telephone interview survey. Seventy-four percent of the women with long-term UI had not sought help. The most common reason given was that the disorder was considered a minor problem, which they felt they could cope with on their own. When women did consult professional help they did so because they were afraid of the odor of urine and that they perceived the leakage as shameful and embarrassing. These women felt that the healthcare service offered appropriate care for their condition. Pelvic floor exercises were the most commonly used management methods for all participants.

- Over the past decade efforts have been made to develop less invasive surgical treatment for female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Abdominal urethrocystopexy with fibrin sealant combined with a couple of absorbable sutures has previously been reported as a promising method. This prospective observational study was aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of abdominal urethrocystopexy through a minilaparotomy using solely fibrin sealant (Tisseel) as the fixation glue. Forty-three women with objectively proven SUI were operated upon with this method. The subjective cure rates at 1 and 3 years' follow-up were 72% and 55%, respectively. The corresponding objective cure rates were 64% and 60%. No serious major operative complications occurred. One patient had transient urinary retention for 3 months. Otherwise, micturition was established within a median 1 day (range 1-3 days) after the operation. The result of this pilot study indicates a cure rate lower than that obtained with the conventional abdominal Burch colposuspension. Thus the method cannot be recommended as a standard procedure for treatment of SUI.
