The new tension-free techniques for treatment of either stress urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse are shown. They are divided as follows. Techniques for the anterior compartment: TVT (Tension-free Vaginal Tape), Retropubic TUS (Tension-free Urethral Suspension), TOT (Transobturator Tape), Prepubic TUS (Tension-free Urethral Suspension), TCR (Tension-Free Cystocele Repair), Retropubic TICT (Tension-free Incontinence Cystocele Treatment), Prepubic TICT (Tension-free Incontinence Cystocele Treatment); Techniques for the apical compartment: Indirect abdominal colposacropexy; Techniques for the postero- apical compartment: Posterior IVS; Techniques for the posterior compartment: Colpoperineoplasty with mesh. Both a correct diagnosis and an appropriate procedure are the right key to achieve a greater therapeutic success
