Introduction We set out to determine if insertion of a retropubic tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) sling at the time of pelvic organ prolapse surgery improves continence outcomes in women with pre-operative occult stress incontinence (OSI) or asymptomatic urodynamic stress incontinence (USI). Methods We conducted a randomised controlled study of prolapse surgery with or without a TVT midurethral sling. The pre- and post-operative assessment at 6?months included history, physical examination and urodynamic testing. Quality of life (QOL) and treatment success was assessed with the UDI-6 SF, IIQ-7 SF and a numerical success score. The primary outcome was symptomatic stress urinary incontinence (SUI) requiring continence surgery (TVT) at 6?months. Long-term follow-up continued to a minimum of 24?months. Secondary outcomes were quality of life parameters. Results Eighty women received prolapse surgery alone (n--3) or prolapse surgery with concurrent TVT (n--7). Six months following prolapse surgery 3 out of 43 (7?%) patients in the no TVT group requested sling surgery compared with 0 out of 37 (0?%) in the TVT group (ARR 7?% [95?%CI: 3 to 19?%], p--.11). After 24?months there was one further participant in the no TVT group who received a TVT for treatment of SUI compared with none in the TVT group (4 out of 43, 9.3?% versus 0 out of 37; ARR 9.3?% [95?%CI: ? to 22?%], p--.06). Both groups showed improvement in QOL difference scores for within-group analysis, without difference between groups. Conclusion These results support a policy that routine insertion of a sling in women with OSI at the time of prolapse repair is questionable and should be subject to shared decision-making between clinician and patient.
