   Extractions: Some children are born with or develop bladders that do not function properly. These children may have a history of myelomeningocele (spina bifida), have had a traumatic spinal injury, were born with bladder exstrophy (bladder open face at the skin), or have had a congenital bladder obstruction. These patients often have urinary incontinence and may develop dilatation of their ureters and kidneys. Whether due to abnormal nerve innervation of the bladder muscle and/or urethral sphincters, or to chronic obstructive bladder damage most patients with this bladder condition are unable to empty their bladder on their own. Management of children or adolescents with neurogenic bladder conditions are individualized to each patient and their parents. Our main goals are to preserve function of the kidneys and then to obtain full urinary continence in between urinating which is most often assisted with catheterizations if catheterization is required. In those individuals in which we have fully maximized their medical management and clean intermittent catheterization skills and they remain wet or are having progressive dilatation of their ureters or kidneys, we encourage moving ahead to surgical intervention to optimize their condition. In patients who are on clean intermittent catheterization and are having difficulty passing the catheter through the urethra into the bladder or would just prefer an easier more accessible rout for catheterization we've been able to offer them the Mitrofanoff procedure. The Mitrofanoff is a catheterizable non-leaking dime size stoma which we conceal by placing it in the base of the umbilicus (belly button). The appendix is used to communicate the bladder to the umbilicus and is fashioned so to accept an 8-14 french catheter for emptying the bladder and not allow urinary leakage. The patient simply lifts his/her T-shirt places the catheter into the concealed opening in the umbilicus and then empties the bladder. For children or adolescents who are confined to a wheelchair and/or this would allow for their catheterizations independent of others' assistance, this has been most gratifying.

   Extractions: BLADDER DYSFUNCTION AND INCONTINENCE I. Normal neurologic control of bladder function achieves continence and, during voiding, coordination of detrusor contraction with external sphincter relaxation. Descending pathyways from midbrain and pons are essential for coordination of detrusor and ext. urethr. sphincter; damage from lesions there or high in spinal cord results in "vesical-sphincter dyssynergia" (see below) Keep in mind drugs as a cause of trouble! Pharmacologic manipulation of detrusor contraction and urethr. sphincters can provide some relief Urinary retention carries with it the complications of infection and hydronephrosis, both of which can result in renal failure II. Components of the system: Bladder Dome ("body") lies above a line formed partly by ureteral orifices and post. ridge of the trigone Base includes trigone, neck, and functional internal sphincter "Internal urinary sphincter," aka bladder neck

Z Contents of this page: Voiding cystourethrogram Definition Return to top Neurogenic bladder is a urinary problem in which there is abnormal emptying of the bladder with subsequent retention or incontinence of urine. Depending on the type of nervous damage, the bladder may empty spontaneously (incontinence) or may not empty at all (retention with overflow leakage). Some of the common causes for neurogenic bladder are nervous system tumor , trauma, or inflammatory conditions (such as multiple sclerosis).

   Extractions: Subscribe now >> For the urinary system to work right, the muscles and nerves must work together to hold urine in the bladder and then release it at the right time. Nerves carry messages from the bladder to the brain, letting the brain know when the bladder is full. The nerves carry messages from the brain to the muscles of the bladder telling them either to tighten or release. In a neurogenic bladder, the nerves that are supposed to carry these messages do not work properly. Neurogenic bladder can lead to different kinds of problems. It may result in urine leakage if the muscles holding urine in do not get the right message. For other people, a neurogenic bladder means that their muscles do not get the message that it is time to let go. If the bladder becomes too full, urine may back up into the kidneys, and the extra pressure causes damage to the tiny blood vessels in the kidney. Or urine that stays too long may lead to an infection in the bladder or ureters, which are the tubes that carry urine from the kidney to the bladder. Accidents that cause trauma to the brain or spinal cord, heavy metal poisoning, diabetes, and acute infections are among the ways nerves and nerve pathways can be damaged. Some children are born with nerve problems, which can keep a baby's bladder from releasing urine, leading to urinary infections or kidney damage.

A nerve problem might affect your bladder control if the nerves that are supposed to carry messages between the brain and the bladder do not work properly. Top Nerves carry signals from the brain to the bladder and sphincter. Nerves that work poorly can lead to three different kinds of bladder control problems. Overactive bladder.

In the neurogenic bladder, activity can be hypotonic (flaccid) or spastic (contracted). Etiology Hypotonic (flaccid) neurogenic bladder is generally caused by damage to local innervation (sacral spinal cord); common congenital causes include myelomeningocele, filum terminale syndrome, or other lesions of the spinal cord, including the cauda equina. Spastic (contracted) neurogenic bladder is usually due to brain or suprasacral spinal cord damage; the most common acquired cause is spinal cord injury from transverse myelitis or traumatic cord transection that results in paraplegia or quadriplegia. Both hypotonic and spastic neurogenic bladder can be caused by disease processes, including syphilis, diabetes mellitus, brain or spinal cord tumors, stroke, ruptured intervertebral disk, and demyelinating or degenerative diseases (eg, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

Drug Checker Advertisement Advertisement Neurogenic bladder is impaired bladder function resulting from damage to the nerves that govern the urinary tract. Various nerves converge in the area of the bladder and serve to control the muscles of the urinary tract, which includes the sphincter muscles that normally form a tight ring around the urethra to hold urine back until it is voluntarily released. A variety of factors can damage these nerves and cause urinary incontinence. In some cases, spontaneous nerve impulses to the bladder trigger spastic unexpected bladder contractions, resulting in accidental voiding of sometimes large amounts of urine. In other types of neurogenic bladder conditions, the bladder may become flaccid and distended and cease to contract fully, resulting in only partial emptying and continual dribbling of small amounts of urine. Rashes may erupt in areas of the skin irritated by urine.
