Résumé
Les fonctions urétrales peuvent être explorées par le Valsalva Leak Point Pressure et la mesure des pressions urétrales en profilométrie. Ces tests peuvent avoir un apport intéressant dans le diagnostic et l’évaluation pronostique préopératoire des incontinences urinaires à l’effort de la femme.
Abstract
Urethral function can be evaluated using Valsalva leak point pressure and sphincterometry. These assessments can help in diagnosing and determining a prognosis for urinary stress incontinence, especially before surgical intervention.
