Retropubic or Transobturator
sensiTVT-A
sensiTVT-A is an adjustable sub-urethral implant. The sling´s design enables tilting of the lateral sling arms, while in the constricted space. The sling’s center lays constantly flat at the junction of the middle to the distal urethra. sensiTVT-A is an adjustable sub-urethral implant made of a polypropylene mesh, pull-in sutures, adjustment sutures and a detachable pull-in aid.
Indication
Surgical treatment of female SUI:
- Resulting from urethral hypermobility
- Resulting from intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD)
Facts
- Unique design: no twisting of the sling center, it lays flat under mid-urethra
- sensiTVT-A supports the urethra. The sling center is intended to be positioned at the junction of the middle to the distal urethra
- The sling’s position might be adjusted post-operatively by means of the adjustment sutures
- Adjustment is in both directions possible. Cranial direction (tightening) in case of persisting incontinence and caudal direction (loosening) in case of over-correction (urinary retention)
- Implantation via retropubic or transobturator approach possible
Benefits 1
- Possibility to adjust the implant post-operatively to improve efficacy without increased risk of complications
- Efficient improvement of incontinence in female SUI patients
- The design of sensiTVT-A allows a rotation movement of the sling arms and a plane positioning of the sling below the urethra to avoid complications due to twisting of the sling
