| ABSTRACT |
|
We experienced the case of infected mesh with subsequent infective cellulitis of obturator foramen after a TOT procedure. We reported our case of a 47-year-old woman who presented with persistent vaginal discharge, pain and motion limitation of left leg after having a TOT placed for stress incontinence. Inflammation around obturator foramen was demonstrated on computed tomography (CT) scan. We performed total excision of the mesh material. She ultimately had an uneventful postoperative course and no recurrence of incontinence after follow-up 1 month. |
