[Stress incontinence: symptoms. Anatomo-radiological and urodynamic exploration by flow-metry (author's transl)]. 1976

F Pontonnier, and P Plante

The authors study stress incontinence, symptom and not disease, an entity which is rarely found in the pure state in the 21 cases presented. After analysis of the physio-pathological factors concerning stress incontinence, they present the results of a dynamic study by flow measurement (flow-metry). This enabled division of the incontinent patients into 3 groups, depending on the amount of flow, on micturition, normal, increased, decreased. Each group has common anatomo-radiological points, perhaps permitting a new dynamic classification of symptomatic stress incontinence.

D003556	Cystitis	Inflammation of the URINARY BLADDER, either from bacterial or non-bacterial causes. Cystitis is usually associated with painful urination (dysuria), increased frequency, urgency, and suprapubic pain.	Cystitides

D006547	Hernia	Protrusion of tissue, structure, or part of an organ through the bone, muscular tissue, or the membrane by which it is normally contained. Hernia may involve tissues such as the ABDOMINAL WALL or the respiratory DIAPHRAGM. Hernias may be internal, external, congenital, or acquired.	Enterocele,Hernias

D000328	Adult	A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available.	Adults
D014550	Urinary Incontinence, Stress	Involuntary discharge of URINE as a result of physical activities that increase abdominal pressure on the URINARY BLADDER without detrusor contraction or overdistended bladder. The subtypes are classified by the degree of leakage, descent and opening of the bladder neck and URETHRA without bladder contraction, and sphincter deficiency.

D014596	Uterine Prolapse	Downward displacement of the UTERUS. It is classified in various degrees: in the first degree the UTERINE CERVIX is within the vaginal orifice; in the second degree the cervix is outside the orifice; in the third degree the entire uterus is outside the orifice.
