title: Concomitant resection of congenital vaginal septum during the tension-free vaginal tape procedure.
abstract: This case report illustrates how the tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure can be successfully combined with another gynecological intervention. A 38-year-old patient had been diagnosed with didelphys uterus during cesarean section. She came to us for treatment of confirmed genuine stress incontinence. In conjunction with the TVT procedure, we resected the congenital vaginal septum. The patient has remained continent for over 1 year.
