Experimental
Autologous Fascia lata TOT
Through incision in the lower lateral aspect of the thigh, 4 cm above the knee, ~1 cm× ~5 cm fascial strip is isolated from the fascia lata. Two stay sutures are secured to the corners of the fascial segment on each side. About 1cm skin incision is performed at the thigh fold on each side. Next, two separate trocar passages are performed on each side using a reusable C-shaped trocar, with care taken to ensure at least a 1 cm tissue bridge in the obturator membrane between the superior and inferior passes. Following this, the stay sutures are tied external to the obturator membrane on both sides, leaving the sling secured and flush with the mid-urethra. Sutures are also placed to secure the sling to the periurethral tissue to prevent rolling or migration of the fascial strip.
