Tension free vaginal tape versus transobturator tape: five year follow-up results of a prospective, randomised trial

Project objectives

TVT and TVT-O are surgical procedures used in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence. We conducted this study to compare the use of TVT to TVT-O, providing a longer follow-up than currently appears in the literature. We demonstrated that either TVT or TVT-O are safe, with similar results and low complication rates, even after 5-yr follow-up.
