title: An unexpected cause of dyspareunia and partner dyspareunia following TVT-Secur.
abstract: TVT-Secur is a new "less" invasive derivative of the tension-free vaginal tape (TVT). We report an unusual case of dyspareunia for both the patient and her husband resulting from a retained finger pad from the TVT-Secur introducer. The sling was also explanted because of malposition.
