Abstrakt		The treatment of urinary incontinence in women can be either conservative or surgical. The decision is based on the type and degree of incontinence. Urgent incontinence, mixed forms and milder types of stress incontinence are treated with conservative methods, with physiotherapy, drugs or functional electrostimulation. Surgical treatment is the method of choice in all forms of absolute (extraurethral) urine incontinence, in heavier cases of stress incontinence especially when more extensive anatomic changes are present (prolaps of the uterus and/or vagina), in mixed urine incontinence with stressed stress component and anatomic changes, and in some forms of urgent incontinence where conservative treatment is not successful. The choice of the method of treatment is influenced upon by some additional factors: the age of the patient, her sexual activity, general health, accompanying disorders, risk factors, preliminary operations in the pelvic region, and the experience and skills of the medical team.
