Vaginal slings are used to manage urinary incontinence, an undiagnosed condition where an involuntary leakage of urine happens due to losing control of the bladder. Laughing, coughing, sneezing, lifting of heavy things, and exercising are some of the activities that can result in urine leakage. Vaginal slings act like a hammock which upholds and supports the urethra and bladder to prevent leakage. There are several types of slings available in the market such as sub-urethral and pubovaginal slings. Placing pubovaginal slings are minimally invasive surgical procedures (a vaginal incision sling is placed), whereas, sub-urethral slings are placed around the urethra and attached to the abdominal wall. Sling surgery is a common form of surgery, and slings are made using materials such as human tissue, cadaver tissue, pig or cow tissue, and mesh (synthetic material).
