Abstract
To elucidate the prevalence of overt, occult and no demonstrated (ND) stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women with advanced-stage cystoceles.
Between November 2011 and January 2017, all women with ≥stage 2 cystoceles were retrospectively enrolled. Overt SUI was diagnosed before the prolapse reduction test, and occult SUI was diagnosed when urine leakage was noted after a reduction test with vaginal gauze. Otherwise, a diagnosis of ND-SUI was made.
The prevalence, clinical and urodynamic findings of overt SUI, occult SUI, and ND-SUI.
In 480 enrolled women, 62% had overt SUI, 17% had occult SUI, and 21% had ND-SUI. The occult SUI group had the most advanced prolapse. The pad weight results after prolapse reduction (37.3 ± 44.3 vs. 13.4 ± 21.9, p < 0.05), the bladder capacity (243 ± 54 vs. 273 ± 48, p < 0.001), and questionnaires regarding life quality were significantly different between the overt SUI and the occult SUI groups. Bladder oversensitivity (BO) was the most common urodynamic diagnosis (389/480, 81%), especially in overt SUI, while urodynamic stress incontinence (56/480, 12%) and detrusor overactivity (60/480, 13%) were uncommon. The cutoff value of stage 3 uterine prolapse was the strongest predictor for predicting occult SUI (sensitivity = 30.3%, specificity = 78.5%; area = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.52-0.68).
SUI occurs in a ratio of 3:1:1 among cases with overt, occult, and no demonstrable symptoms. BO is the most common urodynamic diagnosis. Pad test with prolapse reduction remains an important tool, especially for coexistent stage 3 uterine prolapse.
