Urodynamic findings in patients with complete and incomplete suprasacral spinal cord injury at different stages after injury

Urodynamic and rectomanometric findings in patients with spinal cord injury.

Patients with spinal cord lesion suffer from complex disorders of bladder and anorectal function. We assessed the value of urodynamics and anorectal manometry as prognostic and diagnostic tools in these patients and evaluated the usefulness of these techniques for the differentiation between complete and incomplete spinal cord lesions. Thirty patients with suprasacral spinal cord injury (six wo...

Frequency of Phantom Pain among patients with Spinal Cord Injury

Summary: Background: Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) usually have permanent and often devastating neurologic deficits and disability and pain (1). According to the National Institutes of Health, "among neurological disorders, the cost to society of automotive SCI is exceeded only by the cost of mental retardation"(2). Neurogenic pain constitutes one of the enigmatic clinical sy...

Lumbosacral evoked potentials and vesicourethral function in patients with chronic suprasacral spinal cord injury.

Persistent detrusor acontractility despite normal somatic reflex activity in some patients with high spinal cord injury is an enigma. Previous work has suggested disordered integration of afferent activity in sacral roots or the sacral spinal cord. Forty male patients with chronic stable suprasacral cord lesions were studied by filling and voiding videocystometrography, and recording lumbosacra...
