Core Tip |
We present eight cases of urethral erosion and one of bladder neck erosion after tension-free vaginal tape procedures. The mean interval for complication diagnoses ranged from 3 mo to 11 years. The clinical profile of the complications included de novo urgency, voiding dysfunction, urethritis, relapse of stress incontinence, recurrent urinary tract infections, and hematuria. It is important to consider urethral complications in the postoperative follow-up if these symptoms occur. A control urethrocystoscopy is important for the diagnosis. The transurethral excision of the intraurethral part of the mesh is recommended as the treatment of choice. |
