Abstract
The most important factors in the management of recurrent stress incontinence in the absence of genital prolapse are proper case selection and the proper choice of surgical intervention. All suitable patients were managed by the technique of abdominoperineal urethral suspension, which involved passing 2 aponeurotic bands, cut from the anterior abdominal wall, through the paraurethral attachment of the posterior pubourethral ligament on either side. Urinary continence control in the human female is effected by this upper urethral anatomy and for the technique to be successful it must exert its influence at this precise point. This technique is the procedure of choice in the management of recurrent stress incontinence.
