title: Clinical and urodynamic evaluations of urinary disorders in multiple sclerosis.
abstract: Urinary dysfunction is a major clinical problem and a significant cause of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Indeed, the bothersome symptom of urinary dysfunction may adversely affect social relationships and activities in MS patients. Since many causes of urinary dysfunction are described, a thorough evaluation including history, clinical examination and evaluation of quality of life is necessary. Generally, diagnosis of urinary disorders is complex with intricated pathophysiologic factors. In these cases, urodynamic investigations are necessary to better understand symptoms pathophysiology and choose the best treatment.
