PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This article will review the current literature on the complications of synthetic suburethral slings used in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence and the management of these complications.
RECENT FINDINGS: Loosely applied mid-urethral synthetic slings are becoming the treatment of choice in the management of stress urinary incontinence. Despite the ease of carrying out these procedures there is still a learning curve and, whilst the current literature shows there has been a significant reduction in the complication rate in recent years with the use of modern synthetic slings, they still occur and can be a significant cause of morbidity. There has been interest in developing better imaging techniques for both establishing early diagnosis and in assisting in the treatment of complications; magnetic resonance imaging of the urethra has been one of the modalities that has been investigated. Further work is needed to predict those who are more likely to develop complications during the placement of suburethral slings; the use of urodynamic procedures has shown equivocal results. Inevitably with more experience the techniques have evolved for the management of complications, such as the treatment of urethral obstruction with transvaginal sling incision.
SUMMARY: Synthetic materials for slings provide an effective and safe method for treating urinary stress incontinence in women, and have delivered improved efficacy; nevertheless, although the incidence of complications has significantly reduced in recent years, they still represent a significant and not unsubstantial morbidity.
