Summary

Urethral hypermobility, which can be assessed with Q-tip test, has been considered to be partly responsible for pathogenesis of women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Nonetheless, Q-tip test has lost favor due to patient discomfort. Thus, the purpose of this study was to search a surrogate for assessment of urethral hypermobility by correlating the Q-tip angle and the urodynamic variables in women with SUI.
