Abstract
Vaginal surgery for the relief of stress incontinence has an unacceptable failure rate. The combined experiences in the management of female urinary disorders are presented. Where surgery was indicated the combined approach was used as the primary procedure. The bladder neck was elevated by a technique of suspension using 2 mm Teflon tape, via the cave of Retzius. It was not a sling. The results of 100 consecutive operations are presented. The team approach has led to a better understanding and management of all varieties of female bladder problems.
