Overview

A review focused on minimally invasive treatment of the stress urinary incontinence using bulking agents provides a summary of the current knowledge on this subjects. This paper summarizes the findings on the mechanism of action, indications and applications technique, as well as clinical data on the efficacy and safety of the currently available bulking agents. Attention is also paid to possible future trends of this method. The work is designed to include specific implications for clinical practice.
