[Treatment of Urinary incontinence by Teflon injection (author's transl)].
A report is made on the treatment of urinary incontinence by endourethral Teflon injections applied to 43 cases of male and female patients over a period of 18 months. The advantage of the urethral pressure profile for diagnosing urinary incontinence is emphasized. With reference to sclerotherapy, suitable instrumentation for the endourethral and perineal injection of Teflon is described. Due to our experience, urinary incontinence as a frequent and socially severe complication following operations in the bladder neck area, can be cured to a high percentage by the injection of Teflon. The method used is safe, well tolerated, technically easy to handle, inconsumptive, and can be reapplied without any risk.
