Abstract(s)
International guidelines recommend a first line therapy in the treatment of female stress urinary
incontinence (SUI), the pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training. This case report assesses the effects of the
PFM training program in treating women with severe SUI. The urodynamic parameters allow diagnosed
intrinsic sphincter deficiency and urethral hypermobility. The subjective and objective parameters were
assessed at the beginning and after six-month of PFM training program. This case report confirms the
efficiency of the intensive training program in severe SUI. The medical implications of the PFM training
as first treatment option reflect favourable individual results and additionally contribute to the selection
of the non-invasive treatment, the reduction of the incidence collateral effects, low costs and that does
not prevent future treatment options.
