title: [Clinical impact of idiopathic bladder instability].
abstract: Idiopathic vesical instability (I.V.I.), defined as the detrusor's spontaneous contraction during vesical filling or at its end, with a pressure higher than 15 cm H2O, is a urodynamic concept of unknown origin related to clinical disorders such as urinary incontinence, urgency-frequency syndrome, vesicoureteral reflux, repeat urinary infections, upper urological diseases due to pseudo-obstruction and morphological changes in vesicourethral X-rays. From January 1988 to January 1994, 2500 patients have been urodynamically examined. In 24% cases the diagnosis arrived at was vesical instability, 72% of them being I.V.I. I.V.I. was present as single diagnosis in 53% of prostate post-surgical incontinence, 71% of enuresis, 11% of clinically labelled stress incontinence, 46% of non-subsidiary incontinence, 16% of patients examined for prostatism, 55% of vesicoureteral reflux and 59% of repeat urinary infections.
