rotational descent
Explanation:
Type 1 incontinence

proximal urethral closure pressure >10 5mm from vesical outlet
leakage associated with minimal rotational descent of urethra <45 º

Type 2 incontinence

proximal urethral closure pressure >10 5mm from vesical outlet
leakage associated with gross rotational hypermobility >45 º

Type 3 incontinence

proximal urethral closure pressure <10 5mm from vesical outlet
non functioning “open” internal sphincter
leakage not necessarilly associated with rotational descent

Deficiency in the hammocklike support of the endopelvic connective tissue, coupled with relative preservation of the preferentially anterior urethral support of the pubourethral ligaments, may partially explain the complex rotational and descending motion of the bladder neck commonly observed in association with stress incontinence. The pubourethral ligaments may serve to limit downward motion of the anterior urethral wall and provide a pivot point for rotatory motion around the pubic bone. Some theorize that this preferential anterior wall support also may serve to pull the anterior and posterior urethral walls apart during straining, thereby contributing to bladder neck incompetency and stress incontinence.
