title: [A new treatment procedure for stress urinary incontinence: sub-urethral support using a Prolene sling under local anesthesia].
abstract: An original technique for the treatment of USI under local anaesthesia is described. It consists of insertion of a Prolene sling under the middle part of the urethra. This sling is not placed under tension, but simply supports the suburethral region. In a series of 22 patients without prolapse requiring surgical correction and presenting USI confirmed by clinical examination, 20 were totally cured by this technique and the postoperative voiding flow rate was not decreased. This technique therefore appears to be simple, non-dysuric and effective.
