How it works

About the procedure

The procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis and is performed under anesthesia. Small openings are made to access the urethra and the urinary sphincter. The sling is placed under the urethra and tensioned to reposition the urethra and optimize the sphincter’s function. Patients may be continent immediately following the procedure and may return to normal, non-strenuous daily activities at the physician’s discretion, often one to two weeks post procedure.

Risks

As with any medical procedure, complications may occur. Some risks include, but are not limited to, device failure, urinary retention, post-operative pain, irritation at the wound site and foreign body response.
