  • Effect of botulinum neurotoxin type A injections on detrusor overactivity (case series)
    Leskovar, Jurij ; Hajdinjak, Tine
    Intra-detrusor BTX-A injection treatment for detrusor overactivity conditions, where anticholinergic medication fails, is available as standard treatment in our institution since 2004. This ... retrospective study reports on eleven consecutive patients (8 neurogenic detrusor overactivity and 3 idiopatic), included in BTX-A treatment program between 2004 and 2008. Complete urodynamic investigation was performed before and 16 weeks after treatment. Injections of Dysport were performed under local anesthesia as outpatient procedure on most occasions. Intra-detrusor BTX-A injections ameliorated all overactive bladder symptoms, urodynamic parameters and qualityof life. In a patient with tetraparesis, autonomic dysreflexia, associated with detrusor overactivity that manifested as hypertensive crisis during voiding, disappeared after treatment. BTX-A is a major treatment option in patients with intractable symptoms of overactive bladder or those unable to tolerate anticholinergic medications.
