Funiculopexy

Funiculopexy is a surgical procedure used to treat urinary incontinence in women. It involves strengthening the muscles and ligaments that support the bladder and urethra. Urinary incontinence is a condition where a person is unable to control the flow of urine due to weak muscles or ligaments. Funiculopexy helps strengthen these muscles and ligaments, which allows a woman to control her urine output.

The funiculopexy procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes about two hours. During the operation, the surgeon makes a small incision in the abdominal wall and then strengthens the muscles and ligaments using special metal clamps. After the operation, the patient must wear a special bandage that will help her recover after the operation.

Funiculopexy can be performed either alone or in combination with other treatment methods. However, before deciding which treatment method to choose, you must consult a urologist.

The term funiculoscopy, which means *cryptospermia* in Latin, was coined in the late 90s by German pediatrician Meinhard Schaeffer and describes the evolution of ocular functionality during a child's growth and development. Just as “evolution” refers to the mobility of the eye head, so the concept of funiculoscopy also refers to functional maturity, in which some part of the nervous system has a chance to free itself from the incorrect anatomical vicious circle, providing itself with more comfortable functioning. This disorder can be caused by high squint axes and horizontal or upward rotation of the eyelids, as well as a high degree of concomitant neurological disorders. This is absolutely contrary to the "optimistic" concept of innate medical fitness or full development.

The term was first used to describe a child's abnormal gaze in 1917 by the German anatomist Emil Neumann, who described cases of quadrisopia, i.e.
