Abstract
We have treated 11 children for urinary incontinence with one or more endoscopic injections of polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) into the external urethral sphincter region. The procedure is simple to perform and without significant complications. Long-term results have been gratifying, with cure or improvement in 8 of the 11 patients.Keywords
