Transurethral bladder neck operation in neurogenic bladder.
86 adults with bladder outlet obstruction and neurogenic bladder underwent bladder neck resection or incision to establish effective vesical emptying or damping of detrusor reflex activity. Follow-up examinations revealed a good effect on flow, reflux and hydronephrosis, infection rate and symptoms such as frequency, dysuria, nocturia and urgency. Since 1974, bladder neck incision is preferred; resection remains for selected cases only.
