Abstract
BACKGROUND
Urinary incontinence is a common condition that negatively impacts quality of life of millions women.It\\\'s a result of a synergy between the structures of pelvic floor in particular levator ani muscle and pelvic connective tissues. Urinary incontinence,increasing with age, is associated with considerable personal and societal expenditure.
METHODS
Systematic data search performed using PubMed/MEDLINE database up to August 20, 2020. Focus was only for English language publications of original studies on urinary incontinence and in particular stress urinary incontinence.
RESULTS
Given the basis of published evidence and the consensus of European experts, this study provides an updated overview on clinical applications and surgical procedures of urinary incontinence.
CONCLUSIONS
Urinary incontinence is an underestimated health problem. Many surgical options exist for women with stress urinary incontinence. Nevertheless new strategies need to be evaluated in order to improve quality of life of patients.
