About TVT Treatment

Tension-Free Vaginal Tape (TVT) is a surgical procedure designed to treat stress urinary incontinence in women. SUI occurs when there is unintentional leakage of urine during physical activities that increase pressure on the bladder, such as coughing, sneezing, lifting, or exercising. TVT is a minimally invasive surgery that aims to provide additional support to the urethra, preventing it from leaking during these activities.

The TVT procedure involves placing a mesh-like tape under the urethra to act as a hammock or sling, supporting the urethra and bladder neck. The tape is made of polypropylene, a durable material that is well-tolerated by the body. The procedure is performed through a small incision made in the vaginal wall and two tiny incisions in the lower abdomen or groin area. The tape is then positioned and adjusted to the correct tension, providing immediate support to the urethra.

The TVT procedure is usually done under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia and takes about 20-30 minutes. Most patients can go home the same day or after a short hospital stay. The procedure has a high success rate, with most women experiencing significant improvement in their symptoms.

Benefits of TVT Treatment

At Emirates Hospitals Group, we provide a comprehensive range of treatments for urinary incontinence, including the Tension-Free Vaginal Tape (TVT) procedure.

The TVT procedure offers several advantages for women with stress urinary incontinence:

1. Minimally Invasive: TVT is a minimally invasive surgery that requires only small incisions, resulting in less pain, reduced scarring, and quicker recovery times compared to more extensive surgeries.
2. High Success Rate: TVT is one of the most effective treatments for stress urinary incontinence, with success rates of 85-95% in clinical studies. Many women experience immediate improvement in their symptoms and long-term relief.
3. Quick Recovery: Most women can resume normal activities, including work, within a few days to a week after the procedure. Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise should be avoided for about 4-6 weeks.
4. Durable Results: The polypropylene tape used in the TVT procedure is a durable material that provides long-lasting support to the urethra, reducing the risk of recurrence of urinary incontinence.
5. Minimal Complications: The TVT procedure is associated with a low risk of complications, and most side effects, such as temporary urinary retention or discomfort, are mild and resolve quickly.

At Emirates Hospitals Group, our urologists are highly skilled in performing TVT procedures and will work closely with you to determine if this treatment is suitable for your condition. Our goal is to help you achieve the best possible outcome with the least amount of discomfort or inconvenience.
