Abstract

A urinary incontinence treatment apparatus comprises an adjustable non-inflatable restriction device (434) implanted in a patient suffering from urinary incontinence. The restriction device engages the urethra (435) or urine bladder to restrict the urine passageway. An adjustment device mechanically adjusts the restriction device to restrict the urine passageway or temporarily release the urine passageway to allow the patient to urinate.
