NCT00884871

Brief Summary

The specific aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of surgically-induced weight reduction, as achieved by laparoscopic gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy, on pelvic floor disorders such as stress urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, anal incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse in severely, morbidly and super-obese women using a prospective, observational study design.
