pubmed-article:7423680 | pubmed:abstractText | Urinary incontinence in 80 men was classifed by combined radiological and urodynamic techniques. 28 cases of pure stress incontinence were evaluated for grading of sphincteric loss. Clinical and sphincterometric data were correlated. Functional urethral length, urethral closure pressure at rest and with voluntary sphicter activation, and pressure transmission under stress were used to estimate the remaining sphincteric functions. Theoretical guidelines are drawn for the use of operative sphincter repair based on the grade of stress incontinence. | lld:pubmed |
