The urethral sling can be used for women who have stress incontinence to prop up the neck of the bladder .It has about an 80% success rate to about 4 years and is commonly used by most surgeons now to treat incontinence that has failed with simpler treatments.
The procedures are done almost entirely through the vagina. A small incision is necessary just above the hairline or in the thigh creases for placement of some sutures .
The retropubic sling approach requires permanent sutures just above the hairline that may on occasion be felt as a lump, but this subsides with time.
Recovery time at home can be up to 4 weeks and women offer suffer constipation after the procedure for a time after wards. (4-6 weeks)
