Surgical strategies aim to restore bladder function after spinal cord injury by repairing or rerouting nerves. Each technique has pros and cons, requiring further assessment for optimal patient selection and clinical application.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Urology
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Spinal cord injury often leads to bladder decentralization, impairing urinary function.
  • Restoring bladder function is crucial for patient quality of life after neurological injury.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and assess diverse surgical strategies for restoring bladder function after decentralization.
  • To identify appropriate patient populations for each surgical technique.

Main Methods:

  • Review of surgical techniques including sacral root repair, nerve transfers (intercostal, somatic), and artificial reflex pathways.
  • Analysis of the strengths and limitations of each described surgical approach.

Main Results:
