Résumé

The aim of the present work is to analyze the safety profile, effectiveness, and favorable and unfavorable predictors of clinical outcome in urethral bulking with Bulkamid, and to better identify the ideal candidate for the procedure. We included all consecutive female patients treated with urethral bulking with Bulkamid at our institution within 2 years. Patients were affected by stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or mixed incontinence. Incontinence severity was classified as "mild" (urinary leakage <50 g/die), "moderate" (50-200 g/die), or "severe" (>200 g/die) at 24-hours pad test. Clinical success was defined as "dry" (no pads); clinical failure included "partial improvement" (>50% 24-hours pad test reduction) and "no benefit" (<50% 24-hours pad test reduction). The χ The success rate was 36.1% (n = 35). Forty-three patients (44.3%) reported continence improvement. Complications included eight urinary retention cases (8.2%). Statistically significant correlation was observed between incontinence severity and clinical outcome in thee χ Bulkamid procedure could be proposed with good results in elderly patients or in patients requiring a low-invasive procedure with low risk of complications, affected either by SUI or mixed incontinence and with mild to moderate incontinence. Previous training to clean intermittent self-catheterization maneuver should be performed.
