A study looking at treatment for urinary incontinence after prostate surgery (MAPS study)

This study tried to find out if pelvic floor exercises could help urinary problems after surgery for prostate cancer.

Surgery is a common treatment for prostate problems including prostate cancer. One of the side effects of prostate surgery is leaking urine (urinary incontinence). For some men this is temporary, but for some it is permanent. It can greatly affect quality of life. And it can be expensive, both for the health service and for the patient.
