OBJECTIVE
Bladder decompensation is well described following artificial urinary sphincter implantation in neurogenic bladders. We evaluated the long-term results of various bladder outlet procedures in a subset of patients with neurogenic bladder and isolated outlet deficiency.
METHODS
We
The surgical results of 28 consecutive initial bladder closures and 25 consecutive initial bladder neck reconstructions performed for classical bladder exstrophy at our hospital between 1975 and 1982 are presented. Partial bladder prolapse occurred in 2 cases and complete wound dehiscence never
Although daytime clean intermittent catheterization with urotropic medications is often sufficient therapy to relieve urinary retention and elevated intravesical pressures, neglecting the bladder affected by neuropathy or other significant pathologies during sleeping hours can lead to overdistension
BACKGROUND
We desire to review our experience with bladder augmentation in spina bifida patients followed in a transitional and adult urologic practice. This paper will specifically focus on three major complications: bladder calculi, the most frequent complication found following bladder
231 patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction were evaluated for bladder deformities. Bladder deformity implies bladder trabeculation and deformity of bladder shape such as pine tree shape. Bladder deformity was judged radiographically at maximum cystometric capacity and classified into grade 0
OBJECTIVE
Partial bladder outlet obstruction (PBOO) results in marked contractile, biochemical, and histological alterations in the bladder. Our aim was to determine the time course of progressive PBOO in the rabbit and to find parameters that marked the shift to decompensation.
METHODS
Twenty-four
OBJECTIVE
To establish whether routine evaluation of light microscopic changes in bladder biopsies in men with graded bladder outlet obstruction correlates with urodynamic parameters and to evaluate the performance of two pathologists in bladder biopsy interpretation.
METHODS
In 63 consecutive
OBJECTIVE
In this preliminary study we sought to determine the effect of instituting nocturnal bladder emptying (NBE) in children with neurogenic (NGB) or nonneurogenic neurogenic bladder (NNGNGB) in whom urinary tract deterioration developed despite optimal daytime clean intermittent
Intravesical Adriamycin instillation was used in 10 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder as postoperative prophylactic treatment against recurrence. The protocol for bladder instillation was 20 mg/10 ml of Adriamycin twice weekly for a total of eight doses. One patient developed
A solitary neurofibroma of the urinary tract is rare. More rare in the urinary tract are neurofibromas associated with the neurofibromatosis of Von Recklinghausen's disease. A case of multiple neurofibromas of the bladder degenerating into neurofibrosarcoma is described.
Neurogenic bladder dysfunction, if not properly diagnosed and treated, can lead to rapid deterioration of renal function by compromise of the upper urinary tracts. Two major categories of neurogenic bladder (detrusor hyperreflexia areflexia) have been discussed including the pathophysiology of the
The bladder and its surrounding structures are rich in estrogen receptors and there are demonstrable physiological and anatomical changes that occur around and immediately after the menopause. The prevalence of many bladder symptoms, such as frequency, urgency and incontinence, does seem to increase
The occult neuropathic bladder is a condition of uncertain etiology about which confusion has arisen with regard to diagnosis and management. Incontinence and upper urinary tract deterioration are secondary to high intravesical pressure associated with urinary retention and functional outflow
Assessment of bladder storage function requires an accurate measure of bladder capacity and pressure. Pressure specific bladder volume is the volume that a bladder can accommodate at a specific pressure. A total of 21 consecutive children with neurogenic bladders who were candidates for bladder
