Urethral Bulking Injections
Definition
Urethral bulking injections are a minimally invasive medical treatment used to treat urinary incontinence, particularly stress urinary incontinence. The procedure involves injecting a bulking agent, such as collagen or synthetic materials, into the urethral tissue surrounding the urethra. This helps to narrow the urethral opening and improve the closure mechanism, reducing involuntary urine leakage.
