Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Urinary incontinence has a considerable impact on the quality of life for men. It is estimated to affect 5% of males ages 19–44 and up to 30% of men over the age of 65. Of these patients, an average of 3% are impacted by stress urinary incontinence (SUI). SUI is a common health issue that has a considerable impact on patient quality of life for men. The etiology of SUI is typically is typically iatrogenic (prostatectomy and bladder outlet procedures). Because so many men are affected by SUI, there are many different treatment options available. Both therapies and workup have evolved over time.
This Special Issue aims to collect high-quality contributions on the latest and most innovative advances in the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of male stress urinary incontinence. All researchers are invited to contribute original works and reviews.
