ABSTRACT
The urinary incontinence is a problem of health of high prevalence that can alter the quality of life significantly. In spite of it, the patients with urin incontinence usually accept their symptoms during years before consulting with their doctor. An very out of proportion high percentage of that they consult is sent to the specialist. Although the pathophysiology of the urinary incontinence is complex, when having basic knowledge on the anatomy and physiology of the lower urinary tract, this one can effectively be dealed with the primary attendance within the framework. In this revision the recent findings are described on the lower urinary tract physiology, with special attention in the rol of the central nervous system and the independent and somatic peripheral system nervous during the filling and vesical evacuating.
