ABSTRACT:
Female stress urinary incontinence is corrected by implanting a correcting device which supports the urethrovesical junction from the abdominal fascia. A trocar/cannula assembly is inserted upwardly through the vaginal wall immediately adjacent or proximate the urethrovesical junction, through the space of Retzius, and through the abdominal fascia. The trocar is then removed from the cannula after which the correcting device is loaded into the cannula and pushed upwardly through it and to an implanted position using a push rod. Thereafter the push rod and cannula are removed to complete the procedure.
