Sling revisions by incision\/excision are usually effective; however, they may result in recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We aimed to evaluate continence status after an innovative sling revision procedure that preserves the integrity of the sling. Patients who underwent either a single-incision (AJUST) or a trans-obturator (TVT-O) mid-urethral sling were studied. Transvaginal tape elongation (i.e., sling midline incision and mesh interposition) was performed on patients with post-sling VD. Factors that may affect recurrent SUI were investigated by statistical analyses. Of 119 patients, 90 (75.6%) (45 AJUST and 45 TVT-O) were available for long-term (median 9; 8\u201310 years) follow-up. A significantly higher rate (17.2% vs. 3.3%, p = 0.014) of VD was noted after AJUST (N = 10) than after TVT-O (N = 2). After sling revision, four (33%) of the 12 cases reported recurrent SUI, which was not significantly different (p = 1.000) from the rate (37%, 29\/78) of patients who did not undergo sling revision. Further statistical analyses revealed no significant predisposing factors affecting the recurrence of SUI. Surgical continence did not seem to be affected by having had sling revision with transvaginal tape elongation for post-sling VD.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13020637","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,22]],"date-time":"2024-01-22T12:01:13Z","timestamp":1705924873000},"page":"637","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Continence Is Not Affected after Sling Revision with Transvaginal Tape Elongation for Post-Sling Voiding Dysfunction"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Ching-Pei","family":"Tsai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taichung Veterans General Hospital, Taichung 407219, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chih-Ku","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taichung Veterans General Hospital, Taichung 407219, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Evelyn","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chung Shan Medical University Hospital, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Chung Shan Medical University, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tsung-Ho","family":"Ying","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chung Shan Medical University Hospital, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Chung Shan Medical University, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gin-Den","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chung Shan Medical University Hospital, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Chung Shan Medical University, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6122-6765","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Man-Jung","family":"Hung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chung Shan Medical University Hospital, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Chung Shan Medical University, Taichung 402306, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"845","DOI":"10.1097\/AOG.0b013e31824b2e3e","article-title":"Trends in the surgical management of stress urinary incontinence","volume":"119","author":"Levin","year":"2012","journal-title":"Obstet.
