Abstract

We report 4 cases of severe urinary obstruction after abdominal stress incontinence procedures in women. The operative procedure consisted in transurethral resection of the obstructive, overcorrected dorsal bladder neck. After resection of the highly elevated bladder neck between the 3- and 9-o'clock position in the dorsal lithotomy position, the patients were able to regain a normal micturition without residual urine. There was no recurrence of stress incontinence.
