Disorders of bladder function in spinal cord disease.
Successful management of bladder function mandates a thorough knowledge of the neuroanatomy and physiology of micturition. Accurate urodynamic diagnosis of the exact vesicourethral dysfunction is a key to successful management. The primary concern for the urologist is preservation of renal function, taking into account the social needs of the patient.
