Abstract
Neuropathic voiding dysfunction with detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) is a common complication of spinal cord injury (SCI) and multiple sclerosis. Sphincterotomy has been recommended for treatment of DSD if the patient lacks the ability to do intermittent self catheterization. We report our preliminary results of the Urolume urethral wallstent for the treatment of DSD in 10 patients. The insertion technique proved simple, with a short hospital stay and low morbidity; however, its long term safety has not yet been established.Entities:
