The detrusor urinae muscle also detrusor muscle muscularis propria of the urinary bladder and (less precise) muscularis propria is smooth muscle found in the wall of the bladder. The detrusor muscle remains relaxed to allow the bladder to store urine and contracts during urination to release urine. Related are the urethral sphincter muscles which envelop the urethra to control the flow of urine when they contract.
