Conditions
Brief summary
This study is carried out in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Queen Elizabeth Hospital. We will try to recruit all women presented with Udodynamic stress incontinence with Tension free vaginal tape - obturator done for joining this study. Before the development of perineal ultrasound, the position of TVT-O is only determined by clinical experience and whether the post-operative voiding symptom is related or not is again determined by clinical experience. This study designed to determine the position of TVT-O at 3 and 6 months post-operatively and hence determine the associated urinary symptoms in order to study the relationship between the tape position and post-operative voiding symptoms.
Interventions
The recruited patient will have a transperineal ultrasound scan performed in order to determine the position of Tension Free Vaginal Tape - Obturator (TVT-O). This is a non-invasive procedure with no radiation exposure. The whole scan process will last for around 15 minutes. The recruited patient will have 2 scans after insertion of TVT-O treatment at post-operative 3rd and 6th months.
