Suprapubic-assisted Transurethral Excision of a Vaginal Mesh Eroded Into the Bladder.
Urology Case Reports 2015 May
A 56-year-old woman with irritative voiding symptoms and recurrent urinary infections was found to have erosion into the bladder of a tension-free vaginal tape placed 61 months before. To achieve radical excision, a 26Fr Amplatz sheath was placed suprapubically under endoscopic vision. A rigid nephroscope with grasping forceps was used to pull the eroded mesh out of the bladder wall while excising it transurethrally with a resectoscope. Postoperative course was uneventful; 12 months after surgery the patient remains asymptomatic. This novel technique provides an effective means of radically removing a mesh eroded into the bladder either transurethrally or suprapubically.
