Abstract

Material and methods: we conducted a revision of 3552 patients, 1905 of who were studied urider pressure/tlow urodynamic study estimating the rate of UI prevalence in terms of age, sex and type of incontinence.
Results: out of 3552 consultations, 586 patients were diagnosed with UI (16,5 %).The same happened in 30,8 % of the urodynamic studies (586/1905).
The prevalence of Stress UI was 6,7%, la prevalence of Urgeney UI was 6,5 % and finaily the prevalence of Mixed IU was 2.6%-
80,7 % were women 19,8 % men.
Conclusions: the prevalence of UI in our means was stimated in 16,5 %. Four women out of every man suffer from this condition . Men suffer from Urgeney UI three times as much from Stress UI, mainly those who are over 60 years of age.
Qn the other hand, women suffer from Stress UI three times as much from Urgeney UI, mainly those are over 40 year of age.
