    AbstractMidurethral polypropylene slings are popular procedures for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women. Several commercially manufactured sling kits are available that use proprietary monofilament polypropylene mesh placed between the vaginal wall and midurethral segment. The BioArc sling system is a hybrid sling system that uses polypropylene mesh for fixation and autologous fascia for suburethral support. We report what we believe to be the first case of vaginal erosion after midurethral sling placement using this hybrid system.
