“…The use of the approach of middle urethral suspension (MUS) is considered to be the gold-standard procedure for the treatment of female patients afflicted by SUI. A recent systematic review and meta-analysis had results that indicated that retropubic MUS and transobturator MUS have objectively similar cure rates for long-and mediumterm assessments, however, transobturator tapes have a subjectively lower cure rate than has been observed for TVT based treatments (10)(11)(12). In the results for our study, TVT based surgery has been found to have a cure rate of nearly 90% for SUI patients and has been found to have had a low incidence of complications for all two treatment groups.…”

“…The TVT-abbrevo ® (TVT-A) method, which uses a small polypropylene mesh (12 cm), has been widely used since its introduction [ 13 ]. Because the mesh is shorter in length, surgical complications can be reduced due to reduced dissection and a minimal length of mesh passing through the adductor muscles [ 14 , 15 ]. At the same time, the mesh is still placed between the obturator membrane and under the mid-urethra, allowing the mid-urethra to maintain the same tension-free support as with TVT-O [ 14 , 15 ].…”
