Out of a total of the 42 patients, 32 underwent PDR and concomitant pelvic reconstructive procedures, and 10 patients underwent PDR plus anti-incontinence surgery and concomitant pelvic reconstructive procedures. The mean patient age was 44.5 years. The mean follow-up period was 40 months. One bladder injury and two hemorrhages occurred intraoperatively. The cure rate of anterior vaginal wall prolapse was 92.9%. Of the 20 patients with urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) who underwent PDR alone, the rate of recurrence of USI was 20%; however, there was no recurrence in the 10 patients who underwent PDR plus the anti-incontinence procedures. Paravaginal repair is a safe and effective procedure for the surgical correction of a paravaginal defect, but has limited applicability in the surgical correction of USI.en10.1080/01443610701497603info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessparavaginal defectparavaginal repairpelvic reconstructive surgeryurodynamic stress incontinenceArticle276601604N/AN/A
