Abstract

Urinary incontinence such as stress incontinence, is alleviated in a mammal, in particular a human being, especially a woman, by correcting the internal urethral orifice and the urethra with an elastic form stable material. Such a material preferably a curable elastomer-precursor composition is injected in the body tissue surrounding the urethra, thereby correcting internal urethral orifice and the urethra substantially to its original shape, allowing the sphincter to act in a controllable way.
