In collaboration with leading physicians, the RetroArc retropubic sling system was designed to maintain the familiar features of transvaginal retropubic sling systems that work, while incorporating new enhancements and fine-tuned adjustments to better meet the needs of physicians.

The RetroArc Retropubic Sling System is designed with time-tested AMS mesh with an adjustment suture and ergonomic, quick-release handle.

The RetroArc retropubic system needle provides an intuitive and familiar surgical experience. The quick-release handle has been specifically designed to provide consistent mesh placement, while maximizing comfort and control.

American Medical Systems president Camille Farhat noted the company is committed to providing world-class medical devices that improve patients’ quality of life.

"The RetroArc Retropubic Sling System is another example of how AMS innovates to provide world-class medical devices for patients around the world. We support our products with robust physician training and we encourage physician-patient conversations on the risks and benefits of these therapies," Farhat added.

With the launch of RetroArc, the company provides a comprehensive portfolio of female continence products that include Minislings, Transobturator slings, and Retropubic slings.

Minislings offer a single-incision approach, Transobturator slings facilitate an ‘outside in’ approach, and Retropubic slings allow surgeons to take a ‘top down’ or ‘bottom up’ transvaginal retropubic approach.
