Objective: To compare the therapeutic efficacy after suburethral
adjustable sling (Remeex system) for female stress urinary incontinence (SUI)
between pure intrinsic s phincter deficiency (ISD) and ISD with overactive
bladder (OAB) group. Methods: The study subjects were 86 female patients
with ISD who underwent Remeex system to treat female SUI and who were available
for 12 months follow-up. We retrospectively studied both patients who underwent
Remeex system due to pure ISD (group I) and those who underwent Remeex system due
to ISD with OAB (group II). Improvement in objective and subjective symptoms were
retrospectively evaluated using a 1hr pad weight test, global response assessment
(GRA) and overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS). Results: Group I
included 43 patients and group II included 43 patients of mean ages 56.8
