Neurogenic bladder in normal pressure hydrocephalus.

S Jonas, J Brown

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Normal pressure hydrocephalus can cause neurogenic bladders, leading to urinary incontinence. This bladder issue stems from specific brain function defects, not gait or dementia complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a neurological disorder.
    • Urinary incontinence is a common symptom in NPH patients.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the cause of urinary incontinence in NPH patients.
    • To determine if bladder dysfunction in NPH is linked to brain function defects.

    Main Methods:

    • Cystometry was performed on five NPH patients with urinary incontinence.
    • Patient data was analyzed to correlate bladder function with NPH.

    Main Results:

    • Cystometry revealed neurogenic bladders in all five patients.
    • The findings suggest a direct link between NPH and bladder dysfunction.

    Conclusions:

    • Urinary incontinence in NPH is likely due to neurogenic bladders.
    • The bladder disturbance should be attributed to specific brain defects in NPH.
