Males With Down’s Syndrome and Nonneurogenic Neurogenic Bladder

Abstract

Boys with trisomy 21 may be at risk for the Hinman-Allen syndrome. Surgical intervention and clean intermittent catheterization for renal preservation and continence can be performed in this population despite intellectual impairment. Further evaluation is necessary to determine whether this relationship is more common than appreciated and whether this syndrome occurs in females with trisomy 21.
