A simple endoscopic technique for the infiltration of pelvic plexuses with phenol is described. The results suggest that this is a useful technique in the management of detrusor hyperreflexia and for the older patient with detrusor instability when standard conservative measures have failed. It is contraindicated in male patients because of the risk of impotence.
