Urethral CRDs have also been associated with symptoms of voiding dysfunction. We reviewed the findings of 351 consecutive urethral sphincter EMG studies to characterize the patients with CRDs in our patient population and further to characterize the peri-operative course of any patient with urethral CRDs who underwent surgery for genuine stress incontinence (GSI). Among the 351 women studied, a subgroup of 27 (8%) women demonstrated CRDs during their study. Patients with CRDs were more likely to report the symptom of strain voiding (48% of patients with CRDs, 18% of patients without CRDs; ( Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI Identifiant basis : 2000213437 |
