title: [Perineal functional rehabilitation in female urinary stress incontinence].
abstract: Since January 1985 13 female patients with urinary incontinence induced by pure stress have been subjected to perineal functional rehabilitation at the S. Giovanni Battista Hospital Functional Rehabilitation Service and Turin Health Service Unit 23 in collaboration with the hospital's Urology Division. The results are encouraging and suggest that this treatment may be a valid alternative to surgery.
