SUS (Sub Urethral Support) FOR THE CORRECTION OF STRESS URINARY INCONTINENCE: TOWARDS MORE AND MORE SIMPLIFIED SURGERY

TVT and TOT are considered the gold standard approach for surgical correction of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). In view of the technical difficulties and severe complications sometimes encountered while performing these operations, many authors have studied new, simplified and safer surgical approaches. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the efficacy and validity of the SUS (Sub Urethral Support) technique. SUS represents new mini-invasive surgery for the correction of SUI, and it consists in applying a short sub-urethral sling in a tension-free fashion, through a single vaginal incision.
