Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of Botulinum toxin type A(BTX-A) repeated injection into detrusor to treat detrusor hyperreflexia and neurogenic incontinence in spinal cord injury(SCI) patients.Methods6 patients with SCI were included into the study.300 U of BTX-A was dissolved in saline 15 ml,and injected into 30 different sites in detrusor using a flexible cystoscopic needle.BTX-A injection was repeated 3 times for all the patients.Urodynamic examination,voiding diary and toxic effects were recorded.ResultsThe improvement for symptoms was observed within 5 to 21 days.The effects of injections lasted averagely 8.9 and 5.8 months for each injection.After the first injection,the mean frequency of incontinence decreased from 10.1 /d to 3.3 /d.The mean volume of intermittent catheterization(IC) increased from 98.5 ml to 404.2 ml each time.Mean cystometric volume increased from 95.4 ml to 385.6 ml,mean maximum storage detrusor pressure decreased from 105.8 cmH2O to 31 cmH2O.After the second injection,the mean frequency of incontinence decreased from 9.7/d to 3.7/d.The mean volume of IC increased from 108.3 ml to 387.2 ml each time.Mean cystometric bladder storage volume increased from 105.4 ml to 375.6 ml.Mean maximum storage detrusor pressure decreased from 97.8 cmH2O to 33 cmH2O.After the third injection,the mean frequency of incontinence decreased from 9.2/d to 3.9/d.The mean volume of IC increased from 115.7 ml to 363.9 ml each time.Mean cystometric volume increased from 102 ml to 357.6 ml.Mean maximum storage detrusor pressure decreased from 98.1 cmH2O to 36.9 cmH2O.The patients were followed up for 6 months.No adverse and toxic effect was observed.ConclusionBotulinum toxin type A repeated injection into detrusor is effective,safe,feasible and mini-invasive to treat detrusor hyperreflexia and neurogenic incontinence in patients with SCI.Botulinum toxin type A repeated injection into detrusor is effective,safe,feasible and mini-invasive to treat detrusor hyperreflexia and neurogenic incontinence in patients with SCI.
