title: Postural detrusor hyperreflexia.
abstract: Postural changes in bladder function have been documented previously only in female incontinent patients without evidence of neurologic or urologic disease. In our study the syndrome of postural hyperreflexia is described in patients of both sexes having a variety of neurological disorders. The investigations showed impaired function of supraspinal control of the sacral micturition center.
