Transobturator tapes for stress urinary incontinence: Results of the Austrian registry

Significant complications with transobturator tapes are uncommon. Bladder perforations occurred more frequently with outside-in than with inside-out techniques. Vaginal erosions, abscesses, and pain may be more common with transobturator than with retropubic tapes, and this may be due to the structure of the tapes rather than to the route of passage.
