title: [Primary monosymptomatic enuresis: diagnostics and therapy].
abstract: Nocturnal enuresis is one of the most common problems in childhood. In this article a standardized terminology for basic diagnostics additionally to extended diagnostics will be presented. Depending on the findings a specialized therapy can be performed. Besides drug therapy with antidiuretic hormone (ADH) sleep arousal devices can be used and the combination of both approaches also shows excellent results. At the end of therapy a protracted withdrawal shows better results than abrupt cessation.
