Dear Oldtimer:
Thanks so much for the scissors advice. Indeed that is what she was saying. Her last name is Johnson, so there is no excuse for her poor enunciation of words!
I appreciate your help.

Subject: Scissors
There's a plastic sheath that they use initially to place the sling and then they place scissors or a clamp between the urethra and the sling for support. I would think they would need to remove them, although some of them don't (insert embarrassed face here). I did some surgical reports, my first year working, for a hospital and they did lots of transobturator and tension-free tape procedures. It seems like they always "removed" the scissors. Never heard of an incisor in this procedure. :-)
