Key information

About this study

A retrospective cohort study was conducted in all Burch Colposuspension cases performed between January 2001 and May 2022 at Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Center. All patients' data were reviewed from the electronic medical records and analyzed who underwent Burch colposuspension surgery either with an open or laparoscopic approach. The primary outcome was surgical success, whereas secondary outcomes were perioperative and postoperative data including surgical type (open or laparoscopic), operating time, duration of hospital stay, estimated blood loss, complications during surgery, and additional interventional procedure types.
