ABSTRACT
The tension-free vaginal tape procedure(TVT) has become a state of the art operation for female stress urinary incontinence. The most common problems after the TVT seen are voiding difficulties. Although the incidence of urinary retention appears to be low after the TVT procedure, it is recommended that patients be counseled about the risk and carefully monitored for voiding symptoms during the first 3 weeks postoperatively. When obstruction after the TVT is clinically evident, immediate tape adjustment in the operating room by open vaginal incision, may be indicated. We report of voiding difficulty 8 weeks after the TVT who was successfully managed with urethral dilation.
