Video Objective To showcase a new approach to treatment of chronic pelvic pain after transobturator mesh placement. Setting A community based academic institution. Interventions A robotic approach to an excision of transobturator mesh causing chronic pelvic pain and a robotic retropubic urethropexy for stress urinary incontinence. Conclusion Robotic technology can be used in combination to a vaginal approach to explore the obturator space and removed improperly placed mesh in appropriate candidates. While performing this procedure, it is also possible to perform a robotic urethropexy in patients with persistent stress urinary incontinence symptoms.
