An evaluation of average flow rate in traumatic neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

The average flow rate of 60 male patients with spinal cord injuries was studied in a simplified method with a urine cup and a stopwatch. Results were based on the level of the lesion, course of injury, sensation of micturition, cystometric type and cystographic change. The average flow rate of 60 patients with traumatic spinal cord injury was 10.62 plus or minus 5.37 ml. per second, while that of 10 normal adult male patients was 15.70 plus or minus 3.10 ml. per second. The average flow rate was better in patients who had normal or nearly normal proprioceptive sensation than in those without this sensation. Bladder deterioration was not noted on the cystograms of patients who had normal proprioceptive sensations. Therefore, patients with traumatic cord bladders with normal urinary sensation may have a good prognosis, while those with disturbed proprioceptive sensation may require some urological manipulation to reduce urethral resistance.

Schistosomal myelopathy as a cause of neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

Schistosoma hematobium most commonly affects the bladder and S. mansoni has a predilection for the liver, spleen, and the mesenteric territories. Schistosomal spinal cord involvement is an extremely unusual primary presentation of schistosomiasis, especially in the United States. We report 2 patients with documented schistosomiasis who presented with urinary incontinence as their chief urologic complaint. One patient had no sensorimotor deficit and presented with isolated incontinence as the harbinger of spinal involvement. The other patient presented 5 years after initial exposure, emphasizing the possibility of a long latent period between exposure and onset of symptoms.

[Treatment of urinary tract infections in neurogenic bladder].

Urinary tract infections are frequent in children with neurologic bladder. Treatment must be adapted to the type of infection: acute pyelonephritis requires early intravenous treatment: symptomatic infection of the lower urinary tract is to be treated by oral monotherapy; asymptomatic infection needs no treatment.
