Burch Modified Tanagho
The Burch colposuspension is a well-established procedure for surgically treating women with stress urinary incontinence. The Burch modified colposuspension suspends the anterior vaginal wall (at the level of the bladder neck) with permanent sutures tied to the iliopectineal ligament.
Autologous Fascia Sling
The fascial sling is also a well-established procedure for surgically treating women with stress urinary incontinence. The autologous sling procedure places a harvested strip of rectus fascia transvaginally at the level of the proximal urethra. The fascial strip is secured superiorly to the rectus fascia with permanent sutures
