Introduction: To compare the efficacy, safety and complications of the trans-obturator midurethral sling from inside to outside (TVT-O) and of the shorter trans-obturator midurethral sling (TVT-Abbrevo) for treatment of female SUI.
Materials And Methods: One hundred fifty-eight recruited patients were randomized into either the TVT-O or TVT-Abbrevo group. Preoperative assessment included history and general assessment, urinalysis and urine culture, urogynaecological clinical examination, urodynamic evaluation and urogynaecologic interview by ICIQ-SF-UI, PGI-I and PISQ12. Operative time, perioperative complications, spontaneous voiding, postoperative complications and hospital stay were prospectively recorded in all patients. At 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months after surgery, patients were asked to answer urogynaecological interviews by ICIQ-SF-UI, PGI-I and PISQ12. The urodynamic assessment was performed at 12, 24 and 36 months. Success rate was assessed at 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively.
Results: Overall, 138 of 158 patients (87%) were cured of SUI 36 months after the operation with no significant differences between groups [69 (87%) and 69 (87%) patients in the TVT-O and TVT Abbrevo groups, respectively]. The two groups did not significantly differ in operative time, intraoperative blood loss and length of hospital stay. Nine patients (11%) had postoperative groin pain in the TVT-O group and one patient in the TVT Abbrevo group (p = 0.02). Three-year control demonstrated an equal objective cure rate in both groups. There was a significant improvement in total PISQ-12 and ICIQ-SF-UI scores in both groups at 36 months FU.
Conclusion: TVT-Abbrevo has similar efficacy and safety compared with TVT-O in women with SUI; the use of a shorter sling reduces postoperative pain.

Article Synopsis
- Surgical interventions like tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) are more effective than non-surgical methods for treating stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and this study compares two types of TVT: the obturator (TVT-O) and the abdominal (TVT-A).
- A total of 96 patients underwent these procedures, and both groups showed similar success rates in improving SUI during one-year (95.9% for TVT-O, 95.8% for TVT-A) and five-year (87.8% for TVT-O, 93.6% for TVT-A) follow-ups.
- The results indicate that both TVT-A and TVT-O have comparable effectiveness and low complication rates

Introduction And Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between compression effect exerted by the sling on the urethra using translabial ultrasound and the prognosis of sling surgery in women for stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 151 women with SUI who had undergone either a TVT-Abbrevo (n = 81) or TVT-O (n = 70) procedure. Preoperative and 12-month postoperative assessments including sonographic data, urinary symptoms and signs were compared.

Objective: We compared the efficacy and postoperative complications of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT)-abbrevo® (TVT-A) and TVT-obturator® (TVT-O) surgeries for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 143 female patients with SUI who underwent TVT-A or TVT-O surgery between January 2010 and December 2019 at the Asan Medical Center in Seoul. We evaluated intra- and postoperative complications such as bladder injury, groin pain, urinary retention, and mesh exposure.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The tension-free vaginal tape ABBREVO (TVT-A) is a new surgical procedure for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). However, data reporting medium- and long-term outcomes are lacking. The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of TVT-A in patients with at least a 3-year follow-up.
