Aim of the video: In this video, we present the case of a late-detected sinus formation 4 years after a TOT placement. Method: A combined surgical approach (transvaginal and transcutaneous routes) performed by a urogynecologist and an orthopaedic surgeon was chosen to carry out a radical en bloc excision of the sinus tract with the right half of the tape. This combined approach has the advantage of completely removing the biofilm adhered to the surface of the tape and the surrounding tissues, thus making antibiotic therapy more effective. Conclusion: Surgical removal of these microbial commmunities is very important for the resolution of device-related infections. Severe infectious complications of transobturator slings should be managed by a tertiary multidisciplinary team to optimize patient care. © 2019, The International Urogynecological Association.
