FAQ


Tension-free vaginal tapes (TVT) are minimally invasive surgical devices used to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. They provide support to the urethra without tension, which improves bladder control.

Potential complications include tape erosion or extrusion, infection, urinary retention, chronic pain, and mesh-related inflammatory reactions. Innovations in mesh design and surgical guidance aim to minimize these risks while enhancing long-term efficacy.

Development of lightweight and biocompatible mesh materials,  

Minimally invasive surgical techniques that enable faster recovery,  

Integration of tools for patient-centered decision-making,  

Enhanced safety features aimed at reducing post-operative complications.
