TOT

Dr. Mangala Patil offers the Transobturator Tape (TOT) Procedure, an innovative and minimally invasive surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. SUI occurs when involuntary urine leakage is triggered by physical activities such as sneezing, coughing, or exercising. The TOT procedure is designed to provide effective and long-lasting relief by supporting the urethra in its natural position, restoring bladder control and confidence

What is the TOT Procedure?

The Transobturator Tape Procedure is a type of sling surgery that involves placing a synthetic mesh tape beneath the urethra to provide support and prevent leakage. Unlike traditional TVT (Tension-Free Vaginal Tape), the TOT approach uses a side-to-side transobturator pathway, reducing the risk of complications like bladder or bowel injury. This method provides tension-free support with a reduced risk of postoperative discomfort.
