Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS), also referred to as posterior tibial nerve stimulation, is the least invasive form of neuromodulation used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) and the associated symptoms of urinary urgency, urinary frequency and urge incontinence.
Many studies have been initiated using the sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) technique to treat patients that suffer with urinary problems.
