TVT Removal

I underwent a TVT operation about 5 years ago. Just over a year ago

during another operation it was found that the tape had moved and is now very close to my bladder, it actually touches the bladder when it is

full. I now need this removed as it may penetrate the bladder. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what is the outcome?

I am putting this off as i am very worried that my bladder may be damaged during the removal,although i have been told that i should have this removed asap! and that it will be a major operation with 4 weeks in hospital. I feel that i should have been warned of this risk before i underwent the original operation, but i was not!  Please does anyone have any knowledge of this particular problem.

Many thanks

Mrs. M. Gardener.
