Abstract

This report is a retrospective audit that compares the use of 3 different slings to treat stress incontinence using the transobturator approach in the hands of a single surgeon. There is a highly significant reduction in incontinence in all patients undergoing a transoburator sling. There was no difference in the short term and medium outcomes by objective and subjective assessment. The most common complication noted was urgency incontinence.
