Abstract

The transobturator tape procedure is one of the newer minimally invasive sling procedures used for the surgical treatment of genuine stress urinary incontinence. Two cases of retropubic hematomas following transobturator tape procedure are reported. One patient was managed conservatively and did not require reoperation, and the other patient required computed tomography-guided drainage of the hematoma. In both cases the patients' hematomas resolved, and they remained continent 3-6 months after surgery. The transobturator tape procedure is a minimally invasive alternative to the tension-free vaginal tape operation for stress urinary incontinence, but it may be associated with vascular complications.
