Non-surgical management of urinary incontinence in children
نویسنده
چکیده
Urinary incontinence and neurogenic bladder are common in children, and can be difficult to treat. This themed issue includes contributions by experts in the management of these disorders. Dr. John Kryger discusses the nonsurgical management of neurogenic bladder in children with spina bifida. Drs. Lori Dyer and Israel Franco summarize the literature and their experience with the use of botulinum toxin in neurogenic and non-neurogenic incontinence in children. Dr. Paul Austin summarizes the use of alpha-adrenergic blockers. These drugs are primarily used to treat bladder outlet obstruction due to prostatic hyperplasia, but show great promise in the treatment of dysfunctional voiding in children.
