title: [Urodynamic assessment in multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease].
abstract: Twenty five patients with C.N.S. diseases (parkinsonism and multiple sclerosis) have been studied by means of electrocystouretromanometry and electromyography. Cases with patent urological causes of vesico-sphincteric functional impairment have not been included. In multiple sclerosis urodynamic changes, chiefly detrusor hyper-reflexia, have been registered in 75% of cases, EMG sphincter activity disturbances in 85%. Respectively, 90% of cystomanometries and 54% of EMG sphincter activities showed changes in Parkinsonism. The precise assessment of the individual specific urodynamic change seems to allow a rationally better therapeutic perspective.
