BACKGROUND: Urinary incontinence affects up to 70% of women and pelvic organ prolapse has a prevalence of 41% in postmenopausal women over 60 years, but most are not clinically affected. OBJECTIVE: Sought to assess the relationship of pelvic organ prolapse in patients with urinary incontinence diagnosed by urodynamic and which of the sub-types is related to a greater extent. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performed an observational, retrospective, descriptive, in which we reviewed records of patients with symptoms of urinary incontinence undergoing urodynamic study, evaluating a total of 85 patients. RESULTS: Prolapse was noted in mixed incontinence by 80%, compared to 46.9% with urge incontinence or stress incontinence 34.9%, p 0.034. 89.5% of women with prolapse had some form of incontinence, associated with an OR = 2.38 (CI 1844-3078, p = 0.023).
