Abstract
Many primary care physicians see incontinent elderly patients daily. An understanding of the pathophysiology of incontinence and of the most common causes of transient and established incontinence in the elderly allows the physician to recognize those disorders that can be treated without referral and those that require further urologic evaluation. “Excellent paper” was how one of our reviewers, a family physician, characterized this article.Keywords
