ABSTRACT

Introduction and purpose: Stress urinary incontinence can negatively impact quality of life, leading to decreased self-esteem, difficulties in intimate relationships, and increased social distance. Over the years, various treatment strategies for SUI have been implemented and improved, including multiple devices, medications, and surgeries (TVT, TOT). SUI is a symptom complex that causes leakage of urine, often without a clear etiology. The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the perioperative and postoperative side effects of stress urinary incontinence treatment using two methods, TVT and TOT.
