Urological Aspects of the Shy-Drager Syndrome:
A Urodynamic and Telemetrie Investigation

Urodynamics were investigated in 15 patients in coma due to brain lesion. ln 5 acute patients who had spontaneous micturition, cystometry showed bladder overactivity. A low-compliance bladder with a large capacity and noncontractile detrusor was found in 5 acute patients with temporary urinary retention. In 5 patients with prolonged coma, complete bladder emptying and detrusor-sphincter synergia was found. These findings are correlated with modern concepts of lower urinary tract neurophysiology .

Three patients with the chief complaints of dizziness while standing up or blackouts were diagnosed correctly as having the Shy-Drager syndrome at the Department of Otolaryngology. Both the electrocardiogram R-peak to R-peak interval and the Schellong test revealed disorders of the autonomic nervous system in each of these cases. Electronystagmography also demonstrated pathology of the oculomotor system and/or central vestibular system. Postural balance was also abnormal in one of the cases. Auditory brain-stem responses were normal in all three cases.
