Abstract
This article reviews the most recent studies of tension free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure. It describes studies investigating the procedure’s mechanism in correcting stress incontinence and its efficacy and morbidity. Tension free vaginal tape has shown promise and is increasingly becoming popular for the treatment of urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) because of minimal access, rapid recovery time and good results.
