摘要
Objectives: To report a successful transobturator tape (TOT) procedure performed under fluoroscopic guidance without any complications. Methods: The diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) was confirmed with urodynamic tests in a 54-year-old woman. TOT procedure was performed under the guidance of fluoroscopy. Results: SUI was treated successfully with TOT procedure. Fluoroscopic guidance not only decreased the length of the procedure but also avoided the possible complications. The operator gained confidence and valuable experience. Conclusions: TOT procedure can be successfully performed under fluoroscopic guidance avoiding the possible complications and enhancing the learning curve period. We recommend the usage of fluoroscopy especially for the inexperienced operators. The benefits overweigh the cost of fluoroscopy and the absorbed dose of radiation which is calculated to be lower than accepted limits. © 2007 Springer-Verlag.
