The widespread recommendation of using non-absorbable meshes has delayed a more definitive surgical solution. Newer, less invasive biomaterial treatments show promise. Objective: Our aim was to describe and evaluate a new urethral suspension technique called \u201cshore-up,\u201d performed with APTOS\u00ae resorbable tensor threads on an outpatient procedure. Design: A pilot study was conducted. Participants: 32 SUI women, unresponsive to conservative treatment, participated in the study. Settings: The study was conducted at the HM IMI Clinic, Toledo, Spain. Method: Patients completed validated incontinence questionnaires (Sandvik and ISCQ SF) before and at 1, 2, 6, and 12 months post-procedure. A blinded analysis of results was conducted. Results: Women with SUI of different degrees: mild (3\/32), moderate (19\/32), severe (8\/32), and very severe (2\/32) showed a significant improvement (p &lt; 0.05) in scores on both tests. After 12 months, a success rate of 72% (23\/32) without SUI was observed, 16% with mild (5\/32) and 12% with moderate SUI (4\/32). None of them required hospitalization or post-surgical assistance, and the most frequent complications were extrusion of the final thread end through the vagina in 33% (9\/32), transient dyspareunia in 6% (4\/31), and early suture dehiscence in 6% (2\/32). Conclusion: The shore-up technique is a promising, minimally invasive option for managing SUI, offering high efficacy, safety, and patient satisfaction. Limitations: This is a small study, and further research is recommended to confirm these findings (ethic code 23.02.2155-GHM). &lt;\/p&gt;<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000546004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,14]],"date-time":"2025-05-14T12:02:00Z","timestamp":1747224120000},"page":"1-9","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Shore-Up, a Novel Technique with Tensor Threads in Women with Stress Urinary Incontinence: A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"Cristina","family":"Pages-Garcia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Begona","family":"Pellicer-Iborra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Coret-Cebamanos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Fuentes-Aparicio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/13697137.2018.1543263"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-020-04548-2"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eururo.2017.03.048"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ijgo.12932"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejogrb.2023.05.014"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajog.2016.07.045"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2065-4458"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-019-03959-0"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-020-04294-5"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-005-0060-z"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1157\/13058677"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2113-3202"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MRR.0b013e3282fc0f93"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-013-2117-8"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/2000656X.2014.944187"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.36959\/351\/596"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0748806821998100"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-007-0475-9"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000072942"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cps.2008.12.003"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/iju.14430"}],"container-title":["Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article-pdf\/doi\/10.1159\/000546004","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article-pdf\/doi\/10.1159\/000546004","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,12]],"date-time":"2026-02-12T17:00:55Z","timestamp":1770915655000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000546004"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,14]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,12]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,13]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000546004","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0378-7346","1423-002X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0378-7346","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-002X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,14]]}}}
