About Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension

Laparoscopic Burch Colposuspension is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. This condition involves the involuntary leakage of urine during activities like coughing, sneezing, or exercise. The procedure involves making several small incisions in the abdomen through which a laparoscope (a thin tube with a camera) and specialized surgical instruments are inserted. The surgeon then uses sutures to lift and support the bladder neck and urethra by attaching them to a strong ligament (Cooper's ligament) along the pubic bone. This restores the normal anatomical position and provides long-term support, preventing urine leakage under pressure. It is a preferred alternative to traditional open surgery due to less pain, smaller scars, and a quicker recovery.

Key Highlights

    Minimally invasive approach with smaller incisions and less scarring.Reduced post-operative pain compared to open surgery.Shorter hospital stay and faster overall recovery time.High long-term success rates for correcting stress urinary incontinence.Lower risk of wound infections and complications.Improved quality of life by effectively controlling involuntary urine leakage./ul

Who is this surgery for?

  • Diagnosed stress urinary incontinence (SUI) not responsive to conservative treatments like pelvic floor exercises.
  • Leakage of urine during physical activities that increase abdominal pressure (coughing, laughing, exercising).
  • Hyper-mobility of the bladder neck and urethra confirmed through urodynamic testing.
  • Failure or patient preference against other non-surgical or less invasive treatments.
  • Good overall health making the patient a suitable candidate for laparoscopic surgery.

How to prepare

  • Complete a thorough medical evaluation, including urodynamic studies and possibly a cystoscopy.
  • Discuss all current medications with the doctor; some (like blood thinners) may need to be paused.
  • Undergo pre-operative tests such as blood work, ECG, and a chest X-ray as advised.
  • Follow fasting instructions (typically no food or drink for 8-12 hours before surgery).
  • Arrange for assistance at home and transport for the day of discharge from the hospital.

Risks & possible complications

  • General risks of anesthesia and surgery.
  • Infection at the incision sites or internally.
  • Bleeding or hematoma formation.
  • Injury to surrounding organs such as the bladder, bowel, or blood vessels.
  • Development of new or worsening overactive bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency).
  • Rare risk of difficulty emptying the bladder (urinary retention) requiring temporary catheterization.
  • Potential for recurrence of incontinence over time.
  • Formation of adhesions (scar tissue) internally.

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Hospital stay is typically 1-2 days for monitoring and pain management.
  • Patients can usually resume light activities within a week but must avoid heavy lifting (more than 5-10 kgs) for 4-6 weeks.
  • Incision sites should be kept clean and dry; monitor for signs of infection like redness or discharge.
  • Mild pain and discomfort are common and managed with prescribed medications.
  • Follow-up appointments are crucial to monitor healing and bladder function.
  • Full recovery and return to all normal activities, including exercise, may take 4-6 weeks.
