The indications and the surgical technique of a newly developed operation for the correction of female urinary incontinence (the Tension free Vaginal Tape) are described. This technique is based on a new etiological concept of urinary incontinence and ensures the patient a reduced morbidity (local or regional anaesthesia) and hospital stay (theoretically adapted for a one day clinic). Mid-term results (84% success rate after a median follow up of 3 years) are promising but must be confirmed at the long term. We relate our experience of 30 cases with a success rate of 93% but entached with a high rate of postoperatory urinary urgency. This leads us to emphasise a strict adherence to the indications and an absolute respect of the technique as originally described.
