Sumario:Abstract Background Previously, we presented the short-term outcomes of surgeon-tailored mesh in patients with SUI undergoing TOT. In this report, we aim to highlight the two-year outcomes of surgeon tailored mesh in terms of subjective and objective cure rates, as well as late complications. Methods We performed a randomized, open-label comparative trial that recruited women with SUI who were scheduled to undergo TOT. Eligible patients were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to receive traditional TOT mesh or surgeon-tailored polyethylene mesh. All patients were followed up for two years. Results At the end of the follow-up, there were 13 women in the traditional TOT mesh group and 14 patients in the surgeon-tailored polyethylene mesh group. Concerning the primary outcome of the present study, the cure rate was 100% in the surgeon-tailored polyethylene mesh (n = 14) and 92.9% in the traditional TOT mesh group (p = 0.39). One woman reported improved symptoms in the traditional TOT mesh group. There were no reported failures in both groups. Concerning safety, the incidence of de novo urgency was 0% in the surgeon-tailored polyethylene mesh group, compared to 7.1% in the traditional TOT mesh group (p = 0.34). None of the women in both groups reported mesh erosions, dyspareunia, or need for reoperation. Conclusion Surgeon-tailored mesh for patients undergoing TOT is a cost-effective technique, which has comparable long-term outcomes, in terms of cure rate and complications, to the traditional costly meshes. Larger multicentre studies should confirm our results.
