Genetics and the lower urinary tract.

Neurourology and urodynamics - 1 Apr 2010

Norton Peggy, Milsom Ian

Abstract excerpt

Many complex disorders have been found to have a heritable component, including lower urinary tract dysfunction. Twin studies have indicated that genetic contributions to urinary incontinence (UI) may be as important as environmental influences. Linkage to chromosome 9 has been demonstrated in families with pelvic organ prolapse and stress UI. An increasing number of incontinence specialists are studying subjects...
