Detrusor Overactivity and Urodynamics

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While overactive bladder (OAB) is a clinical diagnosis, detrusor overactivity is identified through urodynamic testing. UDS is usually considered when primary treatment for OAB fails, because UDS is expensive, time consuming, invasive, and sometimes inaccurate, and it is not considered to influence treatment strategy substantially.

What Role Does the Central Nervous System Play in Refractory LUTS, and What Are the Therapeutic Implications? ICI‐RS 2025

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims While many patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) improve by treating peripheral causes, a substantial proportion continue to experience symptoms despite apparently successful interventions. Central nervous system (CNS) mechanisms could potentially contribute to persisting symptoms after the initial peripheral cause has been ...

Save the Bladder: Continent Urinary Diversion as Best Practice for Patients With Refractory Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Refractory neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction presents an obstinate clinical problem. For patients who fail nonsurgical measures, we advocate for bladder‐sparing, continent urinary diversion as the optimal approach to management.

“What Medical Management Should Be First Line for Bladder Storage Symptoms in NLUTD”—Pro Botox

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) severely impairs patient quality of life (QoL). While oral medications are often first‐line treatments, their high failure rates and side effects limit their effectiveness. Thus, we argue for the use of intravesical botulinum toxin A (BoNT‐A) injections as a first‐line alternative ...

Management of vesicoureteral reflux in neurogenic bladder

Investigative and Clinical Urology, 2017
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a significant risk factor for pyelonephritis and renal scarring. VUR can occur through a defective ureterovesical junction (UVJ) or an overwhelmed normal UVJ mechanism such as in bladder dysfunction of congenital, acquired,
