Postprostatectomy incontinence

F Haab et al. Urol Clin North Am. 1996 Aug.

Abstract

Post-prostatectomy incontinence is a devastating complication that is frustrating for the patient and the surgeon. Bladder dysfunction with or without sphincteric incompetence is the main cause for post-prostatectomy incontinence. Treatment based on the urodynamic evaluation is effective in restoring continence and improving the patient's quality of life.
