Introducction: the female effort urinay incontinence (EUI) is a feminine frequent pathology whose correct evaluation is important. The study ultrasonographic urethrovesical is a relatively unexplored method for the diagnosis and causes of this entity.Objetives: to determine the pubourethrovesical angle (puv), urethral motility and pubourethral distance while resting and with the Valsalva and retention maneuvers in patients with effort urinary incontinence of (EUI) and healthy women.Material and methods: this is a prospective, longitudinal and analytic study, which undertaken in the gynecology service of the EsSalud III Hospital in Puno. The specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the technique have been calculated.Results: the puv angle in patients with EUI was on average: while resting 77°, Valsalva maneuver 124.6°, retention...
