[Minimally invasive treatment of female urinary incontinence due to sphincter incompetence].
Urinary incontinence is one of the most frequent diseases in female urology. There are hundreds of therapeutic opportunities without sure outcomes, because of lack of the etiologic cause. Transurethral injection has good results in around of the 60% of the cases with minimal invasivity, good patients compliance, ripetitivity of the method. From 1993 to 1997 we treated 44 ladies with urinary incontinence due to low pressure of closure of the sphincter: 13 patients (29.55%) disease free, 17 (38.64%) meliorate.
