Neurogenic Bladder Dysfunction in the Shy-Drager Syndrome

Abstract

The Shy-Drager syndrome is a neurological syndrome associated with orthostatic hypotension and mixed symptoms of urinary incontinence and retention. Three patients with synchronous pressure flow electromyography-cystourethrography followed by urethral pressure profilometry were studied. They had detrusor instability, and micturition reflex failed to develop. Treatment modalities are suggested.
