RESUMEN
Importance of the problem: Orgasmic urinary incontinence (OUI) is an uncommon finding among other types of urinary leakage. Treatment of this condition is not established. Aims: To describe the case of a patient who presented OUI and had a multidisciplinary treatment. Methods: An obese, 50-year patient complained of OUI with two sexual partners during her consultation. Pharmacological treatment with imipramine and anticholinergics were undertaken, without success. Results: Patient had an important subjective improvement after performing a treatment combination of biofeedback, electrostimulation, pelvic floor muscle training and behavioral measurements such as weight loss, improved after bariatric surgery. Comments: OUI is a complex disorder, without standard treatments and needs to be further investigated with larger, prospective samples. Combined physical therapy approaches should be considered when discussing treatment.
Importância do problema: Incontinência urinária orgásmica (IUO) é um tipo incomum dentre os tipos de perda urinária. O tratamento para esta condição ainda não está estabelecido. Objetivo: Descreve o caso de uma paciente que apresentou IUO e foi submetida ao tratamento multidisciplinar. Metodologia: Paciente obesa, 50 anos, relatando, durante a consulta, IUO com dois parceiros sexuais. Tratamento farmacológico com imipramina e anticolinérgicos foram realizados sem sucesso. Resultados: Paciente apresentou importante melhora subjetiva após a realização de uma combinação de tratamento debiofeedback, eletroestimulação, treinamento muscular do assoalho pélvico e medidas comportamentais, como perda de peso, incrementada após a cirurgia bariátrica. Comentários: IUO é uma doença complexa, sem tratamentos padrão e precisa ser mais bem investigada com amostras prospectivas maiores. Abordagens fisioterapêuticas combinadas devem ser consideradas quando se discute o tratamento.

BACKGROUND: Sexual performance and gratification impact quality of life. Although recognized in the literature as a problem, sexual dysfunction among patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) has never been studied in Jamaica. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: The prevalence ofsexual dysfunction was determined among 268 adult Jamaican patients (166 males, 102 females) with ESRD who had been on haemodialysis for at least three months. Erectile dysfunction (ED) was assessed using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF). Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) was determined using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 classifications of sexual disorders. Prevalence, severity of sexual dysfunctions and relationships with the primary aetiology ofESRD and anaemia were assessed. RESULTS: Erectile dysfunction, desire disorder and orgasmic disorder were found in 91.4%, 88.3%, and 81.6% of male subjects, respectively. The majority of male patients were dissatisfied with their performance at intercourse after progressing to ESRD. Hypoactive sexual disorder, sexual arousal and orgasmic disorders, and aversion sexual disorder were prevalent, found in 96%, 88.1% and 87.1% of female patients. All diabetic patients with ESRD reported hypoactive sexual disorder and orgasmic dysfunction; arousal disorder was found in 94.7%. Aversion sexual disorder was found more among patients with underlying chronic glomerulonephritis. All patients with severe anaemia were found to have hypoactive sexual disorder and among these, 87.5% and 97.8% had severe arousal and orgasmic disorders, respectively. CONCLUSION: Sexual dysfunction among patients with ESRD in Jamaica was prevalent in males and females. Associations exist between sexual dysfunction and diabetes mellitus, chronic glomerulonephritis and anaemia.
ANTECEDENTES: El funcionamiento y la satisfacción sexual afectan la calidad de vida. Aunque la literatura la reconoce como un problema, la disfunción sexual entre los pacientes con enfermedad renal en etapa terminal (ERET) nunca se ha estudiado en Jamaica. SUJETOS Y MÉTODOS: Se determinó la prevalencia de la disfunción sexual entre 268pacientes jamaicanos adultos (166 varones y 102 hembras) con ERET, que habían estado en hemodiálisis por al menos tres meses. La disfunción eréctil (DE) fue evaluada mediante el índice internacional de función eréctil (IIFE). La disfunción sexual femenina (DSF) se determinó usando el Manual diagnóstico y estadístico de trastornos mentales, cuarta edición (DSM-IV) y las clasificaciones de trastornos sexuales en la Clasificación internacional de enfermedades (CIE)-10. Se evaluaron laprevalencia, la gravedad de las disfunciones sexuales y las relaciones con la principal etiología de ERETy la anemia. RESULTADOS: Se halló disfunción eréctil, trastorno de deseo, y trastorno orgásmico en 91.4%, 88.3% y 81.6% de los sujetos masculinos, respectivamente. La mayoría de los pacientes masculinos estaban insatisfechos con su desempeño en las relaciones sexuales después del avance de ERET. Trastornos sexuales hipoactivo, trastornos de la excitación sexual y del orgasmo, así como trastornos de aversión se caracterizaron por su prevalencia, y fueron hallados en 96%, 88.1% y 87.1% de los pacientes femeninos, respectivamente. Todos los pacientes diabéticos con ERET reportaron trastorno sexual hipoactivo y disfunción orgásmica. Se hallaron trastornos de excitación en el 94.7%. El trastorno de aversión sexual se observó más entre los pacientes con glomerulonefritis crónica subyacente. Se halló que todos los pacientes con anemia presentaban trastorno sexual hipoactivo y entre éstos, 87.5% y 97.8%presentaban trastornos severos de excitación y orgasmo, respectivamente. CONCLUSIÓN: La disfunción sexual entre los pacientes con ERET en Jamaica fue prevalente tanto en los varones como en las hembras. Existen asociaciones entre la disfunción sexual y la diabetes mellitus, la glomerulonefritis crónica y la anemia.
