Burch Colposuspension: A Non-Mesh Option for Anti-Incontinence Surgery

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the Burge Culpa Suspension procedure for stress urinary incontinence. It explains that while the midurethral sling is now considered the gold standard method, the Burge Culpa Suspension still has a role to play in treating recurrent incontinence or for patients who prefer a surgery without graft placement. The video also details the anatomy relevant to the procedure, such as the retropubic space, Cooper's ligament, and the obturator canal. Surgical techniques for laparoscopic Burch procedure are demonstrated, including the placement of sutures through the Cooper's ligament and periurethral endopelvic fascia. The video emphasizes the importance of proper tensioning and avoiding injury to surrounding vessels. Overall, the Burge Culpa Suspension procedure remains a viable option for stress urinary incontinence management in certain cases. No credits are mentioned for the video.
