The review of data from different series on the surgical treatment of female SUI shows that up to 36% of patients undergoing surgery for SUI are complicated cases due to previous anti-incontinence surgery, pelvic prolapse that exceeds the hymen, radiotherapy or pelvic surgery. Moreover, the performance of UDS before treatment of SUI leads to a change in diagnostic orientation in 74% of patients with complicated SUI and 40% in the case of uncomplicated SUI. It should be noted that the UDS study modifies the proposed treatment in 23.8% and 11% of patients with complicated and uncomplicated SUI, respectively. A review by Serati et al. reported that the UDS results are congruent with the clinical diagnosis of SUI in 74.5% of cases. However, there is overactive detrusor in 10.6%, mixed urinary incontinence in 8% and the results of the UDS are inconclusive in 6.8% of cases.
