Abstract
The clitoral and perineal branches of the pudendal nerve should be at low risk of direct nerve injury during midurethral slings and similar procedures as they course caudal to the ventral portion of the perineal membrane. The inferior rectal nerve might be at risk of injury during procedures that involve passage of needles through the ischioanal fossa.
