Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of urethral stent implantation on detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia caused by neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction.Methods13 patients with detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia caused by neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction were treated with the operation of the urethral stent implantation. Voiding function, renal function, residual urine volume and hytronephrosis were examined before and after the operation to evaluate the effect of this procedure.ResultsAfter operation, 7 patients normally emptied their bladders and 6 patients had urinary incontinence. Urethral stents were removed from 2 patients in this group due to the irritation symptoms, the second implantation was performed in a patient due to the voiding difficulty. The renal function of patients after the operation had a non-significant improvement, but the residual urine volume and hytronephrosis improved significantly.Conclusion Urethral stent implantation can decrease residual urine volume and hytronephrosis in patients with detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia caused by neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction.
