A total abdominal hysterectomy may cause a postoperative vesicourethral dysfunction due to an injury to the pelvic nerves. However, many incontinent women with benign diseases of the uterus and its adnexae have undergone a Burch colposuspension with a concomitant abdominal hysterectomy. This study was undertaken to compare the outcomes of a Burch colposuspension performed alone with that of a Burch with a concomitant abdominal hysterectomy. This study included 132 women, who, were treated for primary urinary incontinence from February 1999 to February 2002 and were diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence by means of the urodynamic test at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Yonsei University Hospital. Forty-two women underwent a Burch colposuspension alone (Burch group) and 90 women underwent a Burch colposuspension with a concomitant abdominal hysterectomy (hysterectomy group). Between the Burch and hysterectomy groups, the mean age, parity, menopausal rate, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) rate, 1 year follow-up outcomes and postoperative complications were compared using the subjective and objective stress tests according to the retrospective chart review. The mean age (54.6 +/- 0.5 vs 58.6 +/- 9.2 years, p=0.382), parity (3.3 +/- 1.2 vs 3.6 +/- 1.7), menopausal rate (71.4 vs 77.7%), or HRT rate (23.3 vs 11.2%) of the two groups were similar. Complications related to surgery were encountered in 5 patients (11.9%) in the Burch group and in 7 patients (7.8%) in the hysterectomy group (p=0.842). One year follow-up subjective symptoms were encountered in 2 patients in the Burch group and in 4 patients in the hysterectomy group (p=1.00). The stress test was positive in only one patient in the hysterectomy (p=1.00). No significant difference was observed in the 1 year follow-up outcomes, which were 91.4% (32/35 patients) in the Burch and 91.2% (73/80) in the hysterectomy groups. The results showed that there were no adverse effects on the 1 year follow-up outcomes or complications in patients who underwent a Burch colposuspension with an abdominal hysterectomy.
