Abstract

Introduction The Burch procedure (1961) was considered the gold standard treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) before the midurethral slings (MUSs) were introduced, in 2001.

Objective This historical perspective of the Burch's timeline can encourage urogynecological surgeons to master the Burch technique as one of the options for surgical treatment of SUI.

Search Strategy and Selection Criteria A bibliographic search was performed in the PubMed and National Library of Medicine (NIH) databases with the terms Burch colposuspension AND history AND stress urinary incontinence in the last 20 years. The original article by Burch (1961) was included. The references were read by three authors. The exclusion criterion was studies in non-English languages. Biomedical Library Special Collections were included as historical relevant search.

Data Collection, Analysis and Main Results Some modifications of the technique have been made since the Burch procedure was first described. The interest in this technique has been increasing due to the negative publicity associated with vaginal synthetic mesh products. Twenty-nine relevant articles were included in the present review article, and numerous trials have compared Burch colposuspension with MUS.

Conclusion This historical perspective enables the scientific community to review a standardized technique for SUI. Burch colposuspension should be considered an appropriate surgical treatment for women with SUI, and an option in urogynecological training programs worldwide.

Resumo

Introdução O procedimento de Burch (1961) foi considerado o tratamento padrão ouro para a incontinência urinária de esforço (IUE) antes da introdução dos slings de uretra média (SUMs), em 2001.

Objetivo Esta perspectiva histórica da linha do tempo do procedimento de Burch pode encorajar os cirurgiões uroginecológicos a dominar a técnica deste procedimento como uma das opções para o tratamento cirúrgico da IUE.

Estratégia de busca e critérios de seleção A busca bibliográfica foi realizada nas bases de dados PubMed e National Library of Medicine (NIH) com os termos Burch colposuspension AND history AND stress urinary incontinence nos últimos 20 anos. O artigo original de Burch (1961) foi incluído. As referências foram analisadas por três autores com exclusão de estudos em idiomas diferentes do inglês. Coleções de bibliotecas biomédicas foram incluídas por ordem de relevância histórica.

Coleta de dados, análise e principais resultados Algumas modificações de técnica foram realizadas desde que o procedimento de Burch foi inicialmente descrito. O interesse por essa técnica vem aumentando devido à publicidade negativa associada aos produtos de tela sintética vaginal. Vinte e nove artigos relevantes foram incluídos, e vários estudos compararam a colposuspensão de Burch com SUMs.

Conclusão Essa perspectiva histórica possibilita à comunidade científica revisar uma técnica padronizada para a IUE. A colposuspensão de Burch pode ser considerada um tratamento cirúrgico adequado para mulheres com IUE, e uma opção em programas de treinamento uroginecológico em todo o mundo.
