Sling surgery is a short surgical procedure used to treat stress urinary incontinence — the involuntary leakage of urine that occurs when you cough, sneeze, laugh, lift, or exercise. A narrow strip of supportive material is placed under the urethra to act like a hammock, holding it in the correct position when abdominal pressure rises. The sling can be made from synthetic mesh or the patient's own connective tissue, and the procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes under general or regional anaesthesia. Several techniques exist — including retropubic (TVT), transobturator (TOT), single-incision mini-sling, autologous fascial sling, and male sling for post-prostatectomy incontinence — and the choice depends on anatomy, severity, surgeon experience, and patient preference. Most patients are discharged the same day or after one night in hospital and return to normal activities within four to six weeks.
