Kommentar zu „Association Between Urinary Stress Incontinence and Levator Avulsion Detected by 3D Transperineal Ultrasound“
Letter to Editor
It is a very interesting report about the association between stress urinary incontinence and levator avulsion [1]. I congratulate the authors for performing such a large sample study on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and presenting a new finding that the unilateral levator ani muscle avulsion correlated with SUI.
