The modified pubovaginal sling has become popular as first line treatment for stress urinary incontinence. With the increasing use of cadaveric fascia as a sling material, widespread shortages are prevalent, hence limiting its availability. The increased morbidity with the use of synthetic sling materials and autologous fascia has stimulated investigation of other sling materials. We evaluated the tensile strength of 4 suture types, and compared tensile strength of cadaveric fascia lata to porcine small intestinal submucosa using suture pull through analysis to assess their efficacy and durability for use in anti-incontinence procedures.
