Abstract

A method of treating female urinary incontinence comprising providing a surgical instrument having a needle, the needle having a connection end and a free end, and the free end of the needle having a curved portion . The handle receives the connection end of the needle such that the needle is coupled to the handle at the connection end There is provided an implant having an attachment portion provided on at least one end, and the needle is introduced through an incision provided in an anterior vaginal wall so that the free end of the needle is proximate to an ischiopubic ramus The handle is rotated such that the curved portion passes through an obturator foramen and is exposed at the incision An end of the implant is attached to the free end of the needie, and the handle is rotated such that the implant is retracted with the free end of the needle and pulled through the obturator foramen.
