How effective are colposuspension surgeries?
The efficacy of this surgery, as measured by the rates of reported continence of post-surgical patients, is 59% to 100% at 3 to 24 months after surgery, and 51% objectively cured of their SUI at 2 years post-surgery. Colposuspensions are commonly performed as a first therapy for SUI, particularly in younger women who are more likely to need a subsequent continence surgery as they get older.
