“…Many large series have shown that proper detubularization and reconfiguration produces a high‐capacity, low‐pressure and consequently highly compliant urinary reservoir [1–4]. Carini et al [9] provided strong evidence of the superiority of detubularization, reporting marked improvement of capacity, reduction of intraluminal pressure, and reversal of continence problems of patients with Camey I neobladders when they had been detubularized later. However, 20–40% of patients with such reservoirs still have nocturnal enuresis [1–4].…”

OBJECTIVETo establish urodynamic criteria differentiating between men with a radical cystoprostatectomy and ileal neobladder who are persistently enuretic and those who are occasionally enuretic. PATIENTS AND METHODSFifty enuretic men at least 1 year after a radical cystoprostatectomy and ileal neobladder (hemi-Kock or 'W' neobladders) were divided into two groups according to the persistence of their complaint; 17 men were persistently enuretic (nightly) and 33 were occasionally enuretic ( < 3 episodes/week). Both groups were compared with 50 fully continent men with similar reservoirs. Uroflowmetry, enterocystometry and urethral pressure profilometry were carried out according to International Continence Society standards and terminology. RESULTSBoth enuretic groups had significantly higher residual urine volumes, pressure at midcapacity and at maximum enterocystometric capacity, amplitude of uninhibited contractions, and lower compliance than continent men. Men with occasional enuresis also had a significantly higher frequency and duration of uninhibited contractions than continent men. Men with persistent enuresis had significantly lower average and maximum urinary flow rates than continent men, and significantly lower functional urethral length and maximum urethral pressure. Uroflowmetric and urethral pressure differences were dissimilar between men with occasional enuresis and controls. CONCLUSIONEnuretic men had significantly higher residual urine volumes and enterocystometric pressure variables than continent men. Men with persistent enuresis had significantly lower flow rates and less urethral resistance. Pharmacological inhibition of reservoir contraction and/or management of residual urine by clean intermittent catheterization before sleep might cure occasional enuresis.
