Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Regaining continence: - 2x <5g urine loss per day or - 2x recovery of preoperative bladder capacity or - 2x bladder volume of 500 ml corresponding to a physiological bladder capacity The measurement of the bladder volume takes place via a measuring cup during micturition with strong urinary urgency. Urinary incontinence is measured by weighing the samples for 24 hours. End of studies is after 26 weeks.	—
