A Review on Urinary Incontinence in Dogs - Diagnosis and Treatment
نویسنده
چکیده
Primary Sphincter Mechanism Incompetence (PSMI) (idiopathic incontinence, hormone-responsive incontinence) is the most common and important acquired cause of incontinence in dogs. It largely is a condition of spayed female dogs, but in some breeds incontinence may precede ovariohysterectomy (OHE). Decreases in maximal urethral closure pressure and functional urethral length predictably occur during the first 12 to 18 months after spaying, resulting in a caudal shift of the urethral profile, and a deterioration of urethral closure function. It is speculated that this decline in urethral closure pessure continues with advancing age.
