PURPOSE: Acute urethral false passage is an important complication of clean intermittent catheterization in spinal cord injured patients. Temporary urethral stenting with an indwelling catheter is generally an excellent conventional therapeutic option to treat patients with acute false passage. However, how can acute false passage be managed in a patient who refuses insertion of an indwelling catheter? MATERIALS AND METHODS: For 3 years 5 male patients with acute urethral false passage due to catheterization refused urethral stenting because indwelling catheter insertion would prevent sexual intercourse. We placed a nitinol prostatic stent successfully in the false urethral passage in all 5 patients. The stents were left in place for 3 to 6 months. RESULTS: The stent migrated in 1 patient and it was replaced. During a retention period of 3 to 6 months all patients continued clean intermittent catheterization without any difficulty and achieved sexual intercourse. On urethral cystoscopy we observed that all false passages disappeared without a gross tissue reaction. The stents were then removed without any complications. During a mean followup of 11.8 months (range 4 to 25) none of these patients had another false passage. All continued to perform clean intermittent catheterization without any further difficulty. CONCLUSIONS: Temporary placement of a removable endourethral stent is a safe and effective method for managing acute urethral false passage in patients on clean intermittent catheterization who refuse insertion of an indwelling catheter. This approach makes further clean intermittent catheterization possible and improves patient quality of life.  相似文献

Clean intermittent catheterization has been successful in the management of urinary incontinence and upper tract changes associated with a neurogenic bladder. The results of clean intermittent catheterization controlling urinary incontinence, ureteral reflux, upper tract dilatation and urinary infection in 84 children with a neurogenic bladder were evaluated for up to 3 years of followup. Of the children 41 (49 per cent) were totally incontinent and 14 (17 per cent) were slightly damp. Preexisting ureteral reflux deteriorated in 25 per cent of the patients, ceased in 35 per cent and was unchanged in 40 per cent, while pre-existing upper tract dilatation improved in 12.5 per cent and was unchanged in 87.5 per cent. On clean intermittent catheterization and antibacterial medication 90 per cent of the children had sterile urine and 7.5 per cent had 10(5) or more colonies per ml. Complications occurred on 54 occasions but were minor in nature and were corrected easily. Half of the parents, schools and children found clean intermittent catheterization very acceptable or acceptable but a quarter of the parents and patients found it unacceptable or slightly unacceptable, or were undecided. Initial management of urinary complications associated with neurogenic bladder in children has changed to the clean intermittent catheterization program, with greatly improved results compared to Credé's expression of the bladder, an indwelling urethral catheter or urinary diversion. However, the clean intermittent catheterization regimen was not effective completely, not without complications and not accepted completely by parents, schools and children.  相似文献

PURPOSE: The optimal method of bladder management in spinal cord injured patients remains controversial. We investigated the association of type of bladder management with urological complications in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records, upper tract imaging and video urodynamics of 316 posttraumatic spinal cord injured patients. Mean followup plus or minus standard deviation since injury was 18.3+/-12.4 years. Patients were categorized according to bladder management method, including chronic urethral catheterization, clean intermittent catheterization, spontaneous voiding and suprapubic catheterization in 114, 92, 74 and 36, respectively. No significant differences in patient age at injury, followup interval, or level, completeness or mechanism of injury were noted among bladder management method groups. Infection, stone disease, urethral complications and radiographic abnormalities were recorded. RESULTS: Of the 398 complications recorded 236 developed in 61 (53.5%) patients on chronic urethral catheterization, 57 in 25 (27.2%) on clean intermittent catheterization, 57 in 24 (32.4%) who voided spontaneously and 48 in 16 (44.4%) on suprapubic catheterization. The intermittent catheterization group had statistically significant lower complication rates compared with the urethral catheterization group and no significantly higher complication rates relative to all other management methods for each type of complication studied. The percent of patients with complications was greater in the chronic urethral catheterization group only 5 years after injury, while the percent in all other management groups remained similar up to 15 years after injury. CONCLUSIONS: Clean intermittent catheterization is the safest bladder management method for spinal cord injured patients in terms of urological complications. Inappropriate selection of a bladder management method not only adversely affects patient quality of life, but also has a significant detrimental impact on the economic status of the health care system.  相似文献

PURPOSE: We evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel intraurethral prostatic bridge catheter in preventing temporary prostatic obstruction following targeted high energy transurethral microwave thermotherapy in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 54 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia underwent high energy transurethral microwave therapy under topical urethral anesthesia followed by placement of a prostatic bridge catheter, which remained indwelling as long as 1 month (prostatic bridge catheter group). Patient evaluation included determination of peak urinary flow rate, International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) and quality of life score at baseline, immediately following transurethral microwave therapy and prostatic bridge catheter placement, and periodically thereafter for 1 month. Results were retrospectively compared with those of 51 patients who underwent transurethral microwave therapy followed by standard temporary urinary catheterization, typically for 24 hours (standard catheterization group). RESULTS. Immediately following transurethral microwave therapy and prostatic bridge catheter placement significant improvements (p <0.0005) were observed in mean peak flow rate, I-PSS and quality of life score of 59.3, 33.5 and 23.6%, respectively, compared with baseline values. Further improvements were noted up to 1 month, at which time mean peak flow rate, I-PSS and quality of life score had improved 79.0, 54.9 and 56.5%, respectively, versus baseline (p <0.0005). In a retrospective comparison at baseline and 14 days between the prostatic bridge catheter group and standard catheterization group mean baseline peak flow rate, I-PSS and quality of life score were similar. However, at the 14-day followup evaluation in the prostatic bridge catheter group mean peak flow rate was 101.8% higher, and I-PSS and quality of life score were 47.9 and 51.1% lower, respectively, than the corresponding values in the standard catheterization group (p <0.0005). The prostatic bridge catheter was well tolerated and remained indwelling throughout the entire 1-month followup in 48 of 54 patients (88.9%). Early prostatic bridge catheter removal was required in 3 patients (5.6%) due to urinary retention and in 3 (5.6%) due to catheter migration. CONCLUSIONS. Prostatic bridge catheter placement provides an effective and well tolerated option for preventing prostatic obstruction in the acute period after transurethral microwave therapy. This approach avoids the inconvenience and infection risk of standard indwelling catheters or intermittent self-catheterization. Prostatic bridge catheter insertion and removal are rapid, facile, nontraumatic procedures. Prostatic bridge catheter may potentially be used in an array of minimally invasive procedures involving thermal treatment of the prostate gland.  相似文献

PURPOSE: Combined pharmacotherapy, clean intermittent catheterization and infection prophylaxis is currently the gold standard of treatment for neurogenic bladder. However, as the adolescent gains independence from parental supervision, the intervals of clean intermittent catheterization compliance with medical treatment and regularity of followup examinations may decrease, and neurological and/or orthopedic status may change. This situation sometimes leads to failure of conservative treatment, resulting in incontinence and/or deterioration of the upper urinary tract. A multidisciplinary team was established at our institution 30 years ago to assess all aspects of care for patients with neurogenic bladder, of which urological function is just 1 aspect of the complex problem. Patient desires and essential medical goals, such as preservation of renal function, are considered by this team. An adequate compromise is sought and achieved in some cases by urinary diversion. We investigated the long-term safety of urinary diversion in these patients and its ability to protect the upper urinary tract. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between 1967 and 1997 urinary diversion was performed in 149 patients with neurogenic bladder. Mean followup was 11.8 years (range 0.8 to 28.5) in 129 cases. Mean patient age at surgery was 12.1 years (range 0.8 to 20). A colonic conduit was created in 59 patients, mainly before the era of clean intermittent catheterization and continent diversion, while orthotopic bladder substitution was performed in 12 and continent urinary diversion (Mainz pouch I) in 58, of whom 50% were wheelchair bound. RESULTS: The upper urinary tract improved or remained stable in 97% of the renal units in patients with a colonic conduit or Mainz pouch I, and in 95% of the renal units in those with orthotopic bladder substitution. All patients with bladder substitution were continent during the day, 1 required occasional pads at night and 7 of 12 performed clean intermittent catheterization. Complete continence was achieved in 98% of those with a continent stoma. CONCLUSIONS: After failure of conservative treatment in patients with neurogenic bladder urinary diversion represents a safe long-term compromise. Daytime and nighttime continence is provided by the Mainz pouch bladder substitution and urinary diversion, while the upper urinary tract is protected by antireflux ureteral implantation.  相似文献

PURPOSE: Little data are available on the appropriate followup protocols for patients treated medically or surgically for vesicoureteral reflux. We surveyed urologists who primarily practice pediatric urology to determine current practice patterns for following patients treated for vesicoureteral reflux. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 1-page survey was mailed to the 225 members of the American Academy of Pediatrics, Section on Urology. The mailing roster and labels were provided by the American Academy of Pediatrics. The survey included questions on the followup of patients with low and high grade reflux treated medically or surgically. Returned surveys were blindly tabulated by 2 independent reviewers (F. A. F. and P. H. M.). RESULTS: Of the 225 surveys 155 were returned and analyzed for an overall response rate of approximately 61%. Urine culture is routinely performed by 64% and 71% of respondents to follow children with uncorrected low grade reflux and those with high grade reflux undergoing medical treatment, respectively, generally at 3 to 6-month intervals. To follow patients with reflux voiding cystourethrography or radionuclide scan is performed yearly by 99% of study participants, while 77% perform ultrasound. Renal scan and excretory urography are done infrequently. The timing of the surgical correction of unresolved asymptomatic reflux and/or when to discontinue antibiotics in these cases varied significantly among survey respondents. After antireflux surgery 92% and 91% of respondents perform voiding cystourethrography and ultrasound, respectively. Recommended followup after ureteroneocystotomy varied greatly among survey participants. CONCLUSIONS: The overwhelming majority of practitioners agree on the timing and type of radiographic studies to be used to follow children treated for reflux and the majority routinely perform urine culture. Opinion on the continuation of antibiotics and timing of surgical intervention for asymptomatic unresolved reflux is divided. Wide variation exists on the recommended followup after reimplantation.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: We undertook a survey of Korean urologists to establish initial treatment practices for acute urinary retention secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia. METHODS: Probability samples were drawn from the Korean Urological Association Registry of Physicians, and a random sample of 850 Korean urologists were asked to complete a questionnaire that explored practice characteristics and treatment strategies in the management of acute urinary retention. The returned questionnaires were statistically analyzed. RESULTS: Of the 850 questionnaires sent, 302 were returned, and 277 of those were included in the final analysis (response rate 32.6%). Korean urologists preferred urethral catheterization as the initial management. Of respondents, 154 (55.6%) and 109 (39.4%) started their patients on alpha-blockers and alpha-blockers with finasteride, respectively. Nearly half (50.2%) used a trial without catheter 7 days after catheterization. One failed trial without catheter was an indication for surgery for only 69 (24.9%) of the respondents. A second trial without catheter was advocated by 108 (39.0%). Most urologists (82.3%) expected to be successful with the above management in 50% or greater. Physician's demographics or types of initial management did not influence physician's perception of expected success rate when the expected success rate was divided as < or =50% and >50. CONCLUSIONS: These data provide a picture of current practice regarding the management of acute urinary retention secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia in Korea. There is no uniformity in the management of acute urinary retention in Korea.  相似文献

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine whether redo bladder neck reconstruction is effective in achieving continence after a failed bladder neck reconstruction procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the hospital records of patients with bladder exstrophy who had undergone redo bladder neck reconstruction. There were 30 patients in the study, including 20 boys and 10 girls. Mean patient age at redo bladder neck reconstruction was 9.3 years (range 3.2 to 15.5). The patients were divided into 3 groups on the basis of the preoperative pattern of incontinence--incomplete wetters, complete wetters and those on continuous suprapubic drainage. Of the patients 15 already had undergone bladder augmentation, 12 had undergone a Mitrofanoff procedure and 12 had been treated with bulking agents injected in the bladder neck in an attempt to achieve continence. Four patients had undergone more than 1 bladder neck procedure. The patients were investigated with a combination of noninvasive urodynamics, cystoscopy, cystogram and ultrasound. All patients underwent Mitchell's modification of Young-Dees-Leadbetter bladder neck reconstruction. Additional procedures performed included augmentation cystoplasty and Mitrofanoff formation. RESULTS: Mean followup was 6.9 years (range 1.2 to 15.5). Postoperatively 28 patients were using clean intermittent catheterization to empty the bladder (5 per urethra, 23 via Mitrofanoff). Two patients remained on continuous suprapubic catheter drainage. A total of 18 patients (60%) were dry postoperatively (80% of girls and 50% of boys). Among dry patients only 3 were performing clean intermittent catheterization per urethra and 15 via a Mitrofanoff channel. No patient was able to void per urethra without the need for clean intermittent catheterization. The 2 patients on continuous suprapubic catheter drainage continued to remain so. At night only 50% of the patients were dry (5 on free drainage, 4 on clean intermittent catheterization, 6 not on any drainage). Those patients who did not respond satisfactorily to redo bladder neck reconstruction underwent subsequent additional procedures, which included injection of bulking agents (3 patients), insertion of an artificial urinary sphincter (1), Mitrofanoff formation (2) and bladder augmentation plus Mitrofanoff channel (1). Postoperative complications included difficulty with clean intermittent catheterization (8 patients), perivesical leak (1), recurrent epididymo-orchitis (1), upper urinary tract dilatation (2) and incisional hernia (1). Bladder neck closure was being considered in 5 patients. CONCLUSIONS: In our experience redo bladder neck reconstruction cannot achieve continence with volitional voiding per urethra. Although redo bladder neck reconstruction can render a significant number of patients dry, it is only effective if performed in conjunction with augmentation. Failure of the initial bladder neck reconstruction may be a reflection of a bladder that is of inadequate capacity and/or compliance. Therefore, bladder augmentation should be considered in all patients requiring redo bladder neck reconstruction. Bladder neck closure may be a better alternative to redo bladder neck reconstruction.  相似文献

The results of the application of clean intermittent catheterization to children are discussed. Of 34 patients only 7 maintained persistently sterile urine and 52 per cent had more than 1 positive culture in the followup period. Complications of the application of this technique are discussed. The major complication rate was 15 per cent and 6 per cent were considered failures of therapy. Only 1 of the 34 patients demonstrated progression of upper tract disease by excretory urography during the followup period. Intermittent catheterization was found to be effective in preserving renal function as well as helping to improve patient social acceptability.  相似文献

Abstract

Our objective was to determine which clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) methods and supplies were used by patients with pediatric onset neurogenic bladders and to relate methodology and materials to reported urinary tract infections. Data were collected via questionnaires distributed by mail and at clinic visits at our university tertiary care outpatient pediatric rehabilitation clinic. Questionnaires were given to 165 patients. Fifty-nine percent were returned (68 patients with myelomeningocele, 27 with pediatric onset spinal cord injury (SCI) and two with other diagnoses). Mean age was 12 years (range 1-27). Fifty-four percent of patients participated in their own CIC. Only two percent used sterile catheterization technique, whereas 98 percent used CIC. A sterile catheter was employed with clean technique by 22 percent. Catheters were reused by 76 percent. Subjects used a wide ranging number of catheters per month, with a median of 5.3. There was no correlation between the number of urinary tract infections (UTIs) per year and the type of catheter used or the use of prophylactic antibiotics. Compared with patients with myelomeningocele, subjects with SCI were significantly more likely to use sterile catheters (p=0.04), >10 catheters per month (p=0.01) and gloves (p<0.001). Subjects who used gloves or more catheters were more likely to experience UTI. These data suggest that clean reused supplies are not related to an increased likelihood of UTI and should be considered a way to lower costs in these populations.

STUDY DESIGN: Analysis of answers to a new questionnaire. OBJECTIVE: To examine current practice patterns of physicians in the urological surveillance and management of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients in Japan. SETTING: Nationwide questionnaire survey to physicians in Japan. METHODS: A Japanese version of the 14-item questionnaire survey carried out in US was mailed to 770 members of the Japanese Neurogenic Bladder Society (JNBS). RESULTS: We received answers to our questionnaire from 333 (43.2%) members of JNBS. The responders were all urologists. For surveillance of the upper urinary tract (UUT), 239 (71.8%) respondents preferred abdominal ultrasound. Cystometry was performed routinely by 174 (52.3%) respondents for the evaluation of vesicourethral function. Cystoscopy was carried out in cases of hematuria (88.0%) and bladder stone (55.3%). Surveillance of the urinary tract was performed every year in 154 (46.2%). For detection of bladder cancer, which 119 (37.9%) respondents have experienced, 94.9% physicians perform cystoscopy, 76.3% urinary cytology, and 60.4% ultrasound. For initial treatment of detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD), 225 (69.2%) respondents chose alpha-blocker, and 94 (28.9%) chose clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) with/without anticholinergic agent(s). For initial treatment of overactive bladder, 245 (74.7%) chose anticholinergic agent(s) only and 63 (19.2%) chose anticholinergic agent(s) with CIC. For initial treatment of areflexic bladder, 233 (73.7%) chose CIC and 63 (19.9%) chose Credé maneuver or tapping. CONCLUSIONS: This survey shows that there are some differences in urological surveillance and management of SCI patients between Japan and the US. Reasons for the discrepancy should be examined.  相似文献

Most of the literature about the urological management of spinal cord injury patients is on male patients, and the method of the urological treatment for male spinal cord injury patients is often not useful for female patients. A clinical survey was done on 28 female neurogenic bladder patients after spinal cord injury treated at our Hospital between January, 1980 and January, 1985. At discharge, 11 patients (39.3%) were catheter free, 3 (10.7%) were managed by clean intermittent self catheterization, 1 (3.6%) was managed by clean intermittent catheterization by a helper, and 13 (46.4%) were on indwelling catheters. One of the main reasons that prevents female spinal cord injury patients from becoming catheter free is that there are no effective external collecting devices or devices to prevent urinary incontinence for female neurogenic bladder patients. Another reason is that some female patients can not obtain a high enough ADL level for toilet activities by rehabilitation in spite of lower thoracic or lumbar lesions.  相似文献

PURPOSE: We estimated the number of vasectomies performed in the United States in 2002 and gathered information on the vasectomy procedures and protocols used. It follows similar studies done in 1991 and 1995. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective mail survey with telephone followup was performed in 2,300 urologists, family physicians and general surgeons randomly sampled from the American Medical Association Physician Masterfile. RESULTS: The response rate was 73.8%. An estimated 526,501 vasectomies were performed in 2002 for a rate of 10.2/1,000 men 25 to 49 years old. Overall 37.8% of physicians reported currently using no scalpel vasectomy and almost half of the vasectomies performed in 2002 were no scalpel vasectomies. Methods of vas occlusion varied in and among specialties with a combination of ligation and cautery being most common (41.0% of cases). Of the physicians 45.6% reported routinely performing fascial interposition, 94.4% reported removing a vas segment, 23.3% reported routinely folding back 1 or 2 ends of the vas and 7.5% reported using open-ended vasectomy. Followup protocols varied widely. Of respondents 53.5% reported charging $401 to $600 for vasectomy in 2002. CONCLUSIONS: Although the estimated number of vasectomies performed in the United States during 2002 represents an increase from 1991 and 1995, incidence rates remained unchanged at approximately 10/1,000 men 25 to 49 years old. The percent of vasectomies performed using no scalpel vasectomy as well as the number of physicians who reported that they use no scalpel vasectomy increased substantially since 1995. Wide variation in surgical techniques and followup protocols were found.  相似文献

A case of secondary VUR in neurogenic bladder with meningomyelocele treated successfully with urethral catheterization is reported. A 4-month-old girl was introduced to our clinic for the management of incontinence following the closure of the meningomyelocele (below S1 level). Anal sphincter and bulbocavernous reflex was almost normal. Since the IVP revealed right hydronephrosis, an urethral catheter was indwelt immediately in order to decompress the vesical pressure. Three weeks later, the right hydronephrosis improved, but the cystogram revealed right vesicoureteral reflux. The urethral catheter was left for the conservative management for 20 weeks. VUR had disappeared on the cystogram and right hydronephrosis returned to normal. Thereafter, the treatment was changed from indwelling catheter to clean intermittent catheterization by her mother. No urinary tract infection has occurred. The necessity of early management, especially decompression of the vesical pressure, for patients with neurogenic bladder associated with meningomyelocele is discussed.  相似文献

Recent reports have suggested that the prophylactic use of clean intermittent catheterization in selected infants with myelodysplasia and with normal upper tracts may prevent their deterioration. The selection of these patients at risk depends on urodynamic criteria. We reviewed our experience with clean intermittent catheterization instituted when upper tract deterioration was found. Of 130 patients with myelodysplasia followed at our clinic 25 (19%) had or presented with radiological upper urinary tract deterioration. A total of 21 patients had vesicoureteral reflux and 4 had hydronephrosis without reflux. Treatment consisted of clean intermittent catheterization alone in 5 patients and combined with anticholinergic medication in 16. Four patients with no post-void residual urine were carefully observed without intervention. Urodynamic evaluation was performed selectively in 11 of these 25 patients for persistence of upper urinary tract deterioration or urinary incontinence after institution of treatment. Of the 21 children with reflux 19 (90%) had resolution or improvement for an average followup of 47 months. Hydronephrosis completely resolved in the 4 patients without reflux. Thus, the over-all resolution or improvement rate was 92% for an average of 41 months. Although these excellent results may not be superior to the prophylactic use of clean intermittent catheterization, they validate the assumption that upper tract deterioration can be reversed. The application of current urodynamic selection criteria may result in overtreating a significant number of infants who otherwise may not have upper tract deterioration. Further refinements in these criteria may be necessary to select better not only patients at risk but also to determine the frequency of imaging necessary in this urologically heterogeneous population. In addition, careful consideration should be given to urethral dilation as a third and equally viable alternative to prevent upper tract deterioration.  相似文献

Context: Bladder dysfunction is common in patients with spinal cord injuries. Clean intermittent catheterization is a preferred method of neurogenic bladder management among spinal cord injured patients. Some complications may occur due to the use of clean intermittent catheterization.

Findings: In this report, we presented a case with an unexpected foreign body detected in the bladder of a patient who used to perform clean intermittent catheterization for her neurogenic bladder management, to our knowledge, which has not been reported in the literature so far.

Conclusion/Clinical Relevance: In this case report, we want to emphasis the importance of different kind of foreign bodies remaining in the bladder during clean intermittent catheterization.  相似文献

A review of 129 consecutive young patients (average age 13.4 years) who underwent intestinocystoplasty or total bladder replacement during a 6 1/2-year period at our institution is presented. The most common diagnosis was myelodysplasia and the average followup was 44 months. The clinical and urodynamic aspects of 4 types of intestinocystoplasty (ileocecal, tubular sigmoid, sigmoid patch and ileal patch) are presented. All 4 operations resulted in a significant increase in bladder volume, with a decrease in filling pressure and, thus, improved vesical compliance. In combination with clean intermittent catheterization renal function was maintained or improved in 91 per cent and urinary continence was achieved in 82 per cent of the patients. Hyperchloremic acidosis requiring therapy was noted only in patients with pre-existing renal insufficiency, although mild hyperchloremia after cystoplasty was seen with all 4 types of cystoplasty. There were no operative mortalities. Significant surgical complications occurred in 36 per cent of the patients, the most common of which was vesicoureteral reflux in the ileocecal cystoplasty. Mass unit peristaltic contractions occurred in 34 per cent of the tubular-shaped bowel segments compared to only 10 per cent of the patch segments. These peristaltic contractions contributed to the greater postoperative morbidity noted in the tubular large bowel cystoplasties. The over-all success rate for intestinocystoplasty in this series was 84 per cent. Intestinocystoplasty is an effective procedure when used to increase the compliance of the lower urinary tract. In combination with clean intermittent catheterization it can be applied successfully to patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction. Large and small bowel seem to have similar clinical and urodynamic properties. The type of intestinal segment used for intestinocystoplasty seems to be of less importance than the size and configuration. Large bowel in its native tubular configuration should be avoided.  相似文献

Of 260 patients being actively followed in a myelodysplasia clinic 48 have had a vesicostomy. Vesicostomy was done because of hydroureteronephrosis in 44 cases, infection in 3 and failure of clean intermittent catheterization in 1. Of the 48 patients 16 underwent closure of the vesicostomy, generally between ages 6 and 10 years, an age when the child is prepared to begin clean intermittent catheterization and is motivated to achieve continence. Two children underwent early vesicostomy closure because the bladder emptied adequately and neither has yet begun clean intermittent catheterization. Two children on clean intermittent catheterization are not acceptably continent. The remaining 12 patients are continent for at least 4 hours on clean intermittent catheterization, some with adjuvant drug therapy. No child has exhibited loss of bladder volume while diverted. Vesicostomy offers excellent temporary decompression of the urinary tract in children with spina bifida and neurogenic bladder, and has no long-term harmful effects on the bladder.  相似文献

PURPOSE: We investigated whether the treatment of bladder dysfunction in infants with congenital high grade vesicoureteral reflux could influence the spontaneous resolution rate of the reflux and the number of recurrent urinary tract infections. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 115 infants with high grade vesicoureteral reflux were included in a followup study of bladder function and reflux resolution between 1993 and 1999. The present study deals with 20 of these infants with mainly grade V reflux, most of whom had recurrent urinary tract infections in combination with high post-void residual and high bladder capacity. Treatment with clean intermittent catheterization was instituted during infancy in these 20 patients and continued until a median age of 4 years. RESULTS: Bladder capacity was high at presentation and at all followup investigations in the clean intermittent catheterization treated group. Moreover, residual urine was high at presentation and especially between ages 1 and 2 years. However, after bladder control was achieved this residual decreased and consisted mainly of reflux urine. In only 1 girl did reflux resolve spontaneously during the 4-year followup period. A total of 18 patients were treated surgically at the end of this period, and clean intermittent catheterization could be stopped a few months later in all but 2. Urinary tract infection recurrences were uncommon after the institution of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The treatment of bladder dysfunction characterized by a high capacity bladder with poor emptying in infants with congenital high grade reflux does not influence the rate of spontaneous resolution. On the other hand, the tendency toward recurrent urinary tract infections appears to decrease with treatment.  相似文献
