Summary
At the beginning of this century, no longer than six years after introducing TVT into clinical practice, French authors introduced new modification of suburethral syntetic tape. The trajectory was changed - from retropubic to transobturator.
This approach proved to be safer and enabled to eliminate, or at least minimize, the principal drawbacks of the original TVT, including frequent urinary bladder perforations and major vessels injury. In many departments this approach soon replaced the „classical method“ of TVT and has become the most frequent method in the management of female stress incontinence. Until the end of 2007 almost 200 000 procedures were performed and its number has been quickly increasing. It is associated with lower incidence of intra-operative and post-operative complications while offering efficiency comparable to TVT. Thus it became in most departments the method of choice in the management of female stress incontinence.
