Re : FR>EN term insuffisance urinaire

[Guest guest]

Hi

 

I think the author might mean " fuite urinaire "  or urinary incontinence.

Insuffisance in this context probably means that the sphincter is deficient.

Usually in French one speaks of " incontinence urinaire du troisième degré " .

I would double check with the customer.

 

Good luck.

Objet : FR>EN term " insuffisance urinaire "

In a paper concerning management of the recurrence of prostate cancer

concerning the morbidity of a particular treatment is the sentence:

Le taux d’insuffisance urinaire de grade 3 est ainsi passé de 11 % à

9 %, celui de la pose de sphincter artificiel de 20 % à 6 % et celui de

fistule uréthro rectale de 9 % à 0 %

Is " Insuffisance urinaire " a different entity to renal

impairment/insufficiency? Google gives very few hits for the term which

I have not met before. Where I can find it, via Google, the context is

almost always non-scientific.

Again, help would be most welcome.
