title: Needle bladder neck suspension for female stress incontinence.
abstract: A highly successful transvaginal bladder neck suspension for female stress urinary incontinence is described and illustrated. Precise lateral placement of sutures, maximum mobilization of the anterior vaginal wall and bladder neck, and ease of approach are keys to the technique. The procedure can be utilized in any setting with minimal complications and with neither obesity nor multiple previous surgeries as contraindications.
