[Neurogenic bladder: report of 73 cases].
The authors report their experience of neurogenic bladder about 73 cases during 16 years. The analysis of the data permits to affirm that the neurogenic bladder remained a rare pathology, that their aetiologies is acquired in 87.6% of the cases with a predominance of spinal cord traumatisms, which explains the predominance of the pathology among the young subject of masculine sex (middle age of 32 years, sex-ratio is 2.5). The clinical signs are represented by urinary incontinence that constitutes the main motive of consultation, followed by obstructive signs and frequent miction associated to urge miction. The explorations put in evidence an important rate of complications because of the diagnostic delay. The therapeutic management aims to assure a most complete draining of the bladder to low pressure, to assure the continence or at least to manage the incontinence while assuring the comfort and the patient's autonomy.
