Tvt Procedure

In this study we determined the efficacy of TVT for the treatment of female urinary incontinence in a first group of patients (69) of our urogynaecology service from April 1998 to December 2000. The TVT procedure is a minimally invasive technique, using local or spinal anaesthesia, which consists in the implantation of a Prolene tape around the mid-urethra. On the basis of our results (92.3 % success rate) we consider the TVT procedure to be a safe and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of female urinary stress incontinence.

Urinary Problems

Two cases of bladder exposure of TVT sling material at 23 and 12 months after the implantation are reported. In both cases the urinary problems developed immediately after the TVT procedure and only few millimetres of one arm of the sling were exposed into the bladder. It is assumed therefore that the graft was inserted into the bladder lumen or into the bladder wall during the procedure rather than rejected. The whole sling was removed and both patients were cured of dysuria but in one recurrence of stress incontinence was noted.

Abstract Purpose The purpose is to analyse perioperative complications associated with the retropubic tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure and their management. Methods This retrospective, monocentric cohort study included 960 women after retropubic TVT procedure performed by one surgeon from 2011 to 2016. Complications were identified up to 6 weeks after the procedure, divided into specific and general complications and classified based on the Clavien–Dindo (CD) Classification. A visit 6 weeks after the surgical procedure was attended by all patients. Results 77 complications, of which 74 occurred postoperatively and 3 intraoperatively, affecting 72 (7.5%) out of 960 women. Urinary retention and voiding problems were the most common complication. The mean age of women suffering complications was 3.4 years higher in comparison to the mean age of women without complications (p = 0.036). The Body Mass Index (BMI) of the group of women with perioperative complications had an average BMI which was 0.5 kg/m2 lower than the average BMI of the women without complications. 22 (12.8%) out of 172 women with recurrent stress incontinence had postoperative complications, of which 21 were related to the TVT. Conclusion The retropubic TVT is a surgical procedure associated with a low number of perioperative complications, even in the group of elderly and overweight women, as well as in cases of recurrent stress incontinence.
