Correlation between stress urinary incontinence or urgency and anterior compartment defect before and after surgical treatment.

Abstract

We aimed to assess the occurrence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and urgency (U) before and after an operation to treat anterior compartment defect, and to ascertain whether there is a correlation between the position or mobility of the urethro-vesical junction (UVJ) and the lowest point of bladder base (N) and SUI and U before and after surgical treatment of the defect, using various procedures.
