Abstract:
A 59-year-old woman presented with stress urinary incontinence, had adjustment of tension-free vaginal tape-obturator (TVT-O) performed using a method that does not require lateral dissection, after a failed TVT-O. Despite having TVT-O tape erosion, she has remained continent for a period of 24 months. The case demonstrates an effective and simple method of TVT-O tape readjustment.

Errors in Taping
Errors in taping arise from multiple factors that can significantly impact measurement accuracy in surveying. Misalignment of the tape, often due to human error, is one primary source. A skilled rear tapeman, using a telescope, can help correct alignment by guiding the head tapeman; however, human limitations still lead to small inaccuracies. These errors may include misplacement of pins or inaccurate tape readings due to common visual confusions, such as mistaking a six for a nine. Such...
Distance Measurements by Taping
Tapes are essential in surveying for accurate, durable, and short-distance measurements. Made from lightweight, nylon-coated steel, they offer flexibility and strength for rugged outdoor use. The nylon coating protects against rust and wear, extending the tape's life. Standard lengths, around 30 meters, are marked in meters and millimeters for precision.Surveyors select tapes based on site conditions and accuracy needs. Lightweight, nylon-coated tapes are commonly used for ease of handling and...
