Periurethral collagen for urinary incontinence after gender reassignment surgery.

چکیده
We report on 2 patients, one female and one male transsexual; in both, Type III stress urinary incontinence developed after gender reassignment surgery. Both patients were treated by periurethral injection of gluteraldehyde cross-linked collagen resulting in a marked symptomatic improvement in association with a significant rise in abdominal leak point pressures. We believe these are the first reported cases of collagen injection being used for urinary incontinence after gender reassignment surgery.
