Urethral Closure

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI), a condition that affects mainly women, is characterized by the involuntary leakage of urine caused by an increase in abdominal pressure in the absence of a bladder contraction that raises the vesical (bladder) pressure to a level that exceeds the urethral closure pressure.
