Abstract

Purpose

To investigate the prevalence of bladder neck incompetence (BNI) and the anatomic differences between different types of urinary incontinence (UI) and overactive bladder (OAB) by transrectal sonography, and to investigate these differences among those with stress UI (SUI) or mixed UI (MUI) who exhibited de novo or persistent OAB symptoms following anti-incontinence surgery.

Methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted on a total of 184 patients with SUI, MUI, urge UI (UUI), or OAB dry who underwent transrectal ultrasound between 2017 and 2022. The presence of BNI and urethral incompetence assessed by transrectal ultrasound were recorded in all included patients, and recorded preoperatively and postoperatively among patients with SUI and MUI who underwent anti-incontinence surgery.

Results

Among the patients, 91%, 84%, 76%, and 71% exhibited BNI in MUI, SUI, UUI, OAB dry group, respectively. Significantly higher rate of patients with BNI were found in MUI than in OAB dry group. Patients with OAB symptoms after anti-incontinence surgery exhibited significantly higher rates of BNI and urethral incompetence than those who did not have postoperative OAB symptoms. Among MUI patients with preoperative BNI, significantly lower rate of postoperative BNI and urethral incompetence was observed in individuals who had improved OAB symptoms after surgery, compared to those without improvement.

Conclusion

A higher BNI rate was observed in the MUI group. A significantly higher BNI rate was observed in women with OAB symptoms after anti-incontinence surgery. Patients with MUI had improved OAB symptoms if BNI was successfully corrected after anti-incontinence surgery.
