Abstract

Since the beginning of use of synthetic midurethral slings, several complications, usually benign, have been reported. Recently, three consecutive cases of severe thigh infection secondary to transobturator insertion of a synthetic tape alarmed us. This is a case report about these three cases and a review of literature about complications of transobturator tapes.
