Abstract

Transobturator tape procedure using small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is designed for the diminishment of the complications of tension-free vaginal tape procedures, and SIS can lower the erosion rate of mesh. However, we here report a case which developed graft-versus-host disease following the use of SIS for the transobturator procedure.
