There are clear changes evident for SUI management in the past decade in Australia, including an overall decline in operative numbers, which correlate with international advisory notifications and local investigations. The results of the Australian Senate inquiry, including removal of single-incision mini-slings, greater availability of patient resources, and greater regulation of SUI procedures, will probably have ongoing effects. Surgeons need to ensure that sufficient training and patient education continue in order to maintain appropriate access to treatment of SUI in the future.
