A young male with bilateral vesicoureteral reflux initially suspected of non-neurogenic bladder-external sphincter dyssynergia experienced persistent residual urine volume. Videourodynamic assessment revealed this was a false residual volume caused by refluxed urine voiding back into the bladder.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Urology
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Bilateral vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a significant condition in pediatric urology.
  • Urodynamic studies are crucial for evaluating bladder function and identifying voiding dysfunction.
  • Non-neurogenic bladder-external sphincter dyssynergia (NB-ESD) can cause urinary retention and elevated post-void residual volumes.

Observation:

  • A young male patient presented with bilateral VUR.
  • Initial urodynamic findings suggested NB-ESD, leading to a residual urine volume.
  • Despite successful biofeedback treatment for dyssynergia, residual volume persisted.

Findings:

  • Videourodynamic assessment provided a definitive diagnosis.
  • The persistent residual volume was identified as a 'false residual volume'.

  • This false residual volume resulted from the voiding of refluxed urine from the ureters back into the bladder.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of advanced diagnostic techniques like videourodynamics in complex urological cases.
    • Accurate diagnosis of false residual volume is critical for appropriate management and avoiding unnecessary interventions.
    • Understanding the mechanisms of urinary retention in VUR patients can improve treatment strategies.
