- Title
An anatomical clinical approach for management failed midurethral sling surgery.

Petros, Peter E. P.
- Abstract
This document, titled "An anatomical clinical approach for management failed midurethral sling surgery," provides practical anatomical insights for surgeons who perform midurethral sling (MUS) surgery. The document discusses the mechanical causes of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and the importance of the pubourethral ligament (PUL) as an anchoring point for the muscles involved in urethral closure. It also highlights important points of technique for MUS operations, such as avoiding nerve complications and appreciating the role of urethral resistance. The document emphasizes the need for a thorough understanding of the mechanics of continence and the operation in order to determine why MUS surgery may fail and what can be done next.
