– The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of biofeedback (BF) and of electrostimulation (SEF) of the perineal floor in male patients suffering from urinary incontinence. Eleven patients entered the study, five of them suffering from mixed urinary incontinence and six from pure stress incontinence. They were treated with six sittings of BF, SEF and domiciliary exercises. The results are promising. Additional monthly sittings and domiciliary SEF maintenance are advised.
