ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on two most popular commercially available adjustable slings: SAFYRE and REMEEX. Slings have been the chosen option for most of the patients complaining stress urinary incontinence for a long time. Synthetic slings have turned major surgeries into minimally invasive procedures and also reduce operative time and hospital stay as well as postoperative discomfort and the recovery period. From a conceptual standpoint, SAFYRE corresponds to a sling. So, the creation of a suburethral support zone increases urethral resistance and diminishes the rotational as well as the descending movement of the urethra when abdominal pressure increases. In spite of improvement in techniques and devices, there is a subset of patients who fail to respond to corrective standard anti-incontinence procedures.
