The implant (2) comprises two elongate flexible strips (20, 30) that are substantially inextensible in their long direction and that comprise firstly respective middle portions (20C, 30C) that are disposed side by side in adjacent manner along the side edge of each strip that faces towards the other strip, and where said strips are mechanically connected to each other, and secondly respective intermediate portions (20B, 30B, 20D, 30D) that extend between the middle portion and each longitudinal end (20A, 30A, 20E, 30E) of each strip, and where the strips are separate from each other. This implant thus guarantees reliable obstructive support of the urethra, it being possible to put the two strips under tension independently of each other with the middle portions thereof acting on the urethra over the total width of the strips.
