The Role of Urodynamics in the Evaluation of Voiding Dysfunction in Men after Cerebrovascular Accident

Abstract

Presenting symptoms did not predict the urodynamic findings of bladder outlet obstruction or detrusor hyperreflexia. The significant incidence of onset of symptoms after stroke suggests that the cerebrovascular accident induced voiding dysfunction in the face of preexisting bladder outlet obstruction may exacerbate the symptoms of the latter condition or vice versa.
