Giggle incontinence: A rare condition with a successful management

Abstract

Giggle incontinence (GI) is a rare condition characterized by involuntary loss of urine during giggling or laughing. Due to associated social embarrassment, it is difficult to recognize and, without a clear management plan, to treat. In this case report, we present a 16-year-old girl with successfully treated GI, discussed with a review of the related literature.
