Pre-operative diagnosis importance of urodynamics in botulinum toxin injection treatment for patients with idiopathic overactive detrusor

Abstract

In this research, there were obtained clinical data based on the necessity and importance of performing urodynamic tests up to the actual injection procedure with botulinum toxin type A of the detrusor muscle, at the patient diagnosed with overactive bladder and detrusor overactivity, offering a guarantee of an effective and long-term result of treatment and providing predictive parameters for some postoperative complications. Urodynamic diagnosis is suitable for patients with OAB refractory to conservative empirical therapy and for providing additional information about the cause of urinary symptoms by confirming the diagnosis of detrusor overactivity.
