The Risk of Stress Urinary Incontinence After Hysterectomy for Uterine Fibroids
Purpose: We evaluated the relationship between previous hysterectomy for uterine fibroids and subsequent stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Methods: This study analyzed national health insurance data. The hysterectomy group (aged 40 to 59) comprised patients who underwent hysterectomy for uterine fibroids between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2014, and the control group (aged 40 to 59) comprised patients who visited a medical facility for a checkup during the same time span. One-to-one propensity score matching was performed to balance confounders. SUI was defined as the need for SUI surgery accompanied by a diagnosis code for SUI.Results: After matching, 81,373 cases (hysterectomy group) and 81,373 controls (nonhysterectomy group) were enrolled. The mean follow-up period was 7.9 years for the cases and 7.8 years for the controls. The incidence of anti-incontinence surgery was slightly but significantly higher in the cases than in the controls (2.0% vs. 1.7%, P<0.001). Compared to the control group, abdominal hysterectomy significantly increased the likelihood of anti-incontinence surgery both before (hazard ratio [HR], 1.235; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.116–1.365) and after adjusting for confounders (HR, 1.215; 95% CI, 1.097–1.347). In contrast, laparoscopic hysterectomy, laparoscopic hysterectomy with adnexal surgery, and abdominal hysterectomy with adnexal surgery were not associated with an increased rate of anti-incontinence surgery. The significant association between abdominal hysterectomy and an elevated rate of anti-incontinence surgery persisted even after stratifying patients by age group.Conclusions: Prior abdominal hysterectomy without adnexal surgery was associated with an increased incidence of subsequent anti-urinary incontinence surgery.
