Abstract:
Pediatric neurogenic bladder (PNB) is defined as dysfunction of the detrusor and/or urethral sphincter due to myelodysplasia or spinal cord injury, manifesting as impaired urination or defecation, which seriously affects the patients’ quality of life. The main indication for sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is overactive bladder syndrome, which presents as refractory urinary frequency and urgency, urgency incontinence and non-obstructive urinary retention. Age more than 16 years are also recommended for this technique. Previous studies have revealed that SNM could significantly improve the outcome of refractory bladder bowel dysfunction. This paper reviews the advances of the application of SNM in the treatment of pediatric neurogenic bladder so as to provide reference for pediatricians.
