We examined the urodynamics, particularly voiding dysfunction, in patients with a neobladder. Free uroflowmetry, pressure-flow study, and voiding cystourethrography were performed in 22 patients (mean age 65 years) at a mean of 21 months after ileal neobladder substitution. The results of free uroflowmetry were used to divide patients into two groups: the good voiders and the poor.

This prospective study was carried out to evaluate the morbidity and complication rate of invasive urodynamics of the lower urinary tract after receiving oral antibiotic prophylactic treatment. A total of 105 patients, 55 men and 50 women, were included in the study and underwent pressure flow study (PFS) as part of the diagnostic assessment. Clinical diagnosis was prostatic obstruction from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men and stress urinary incontinence or voiding dysfunction in women.

We studied the obstruction-relieving capabilities of transurethral electrovaporization of the prostate (TVP) in 32 symptomatic patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Urodynamic studies with pressure-flow analysis were performed before and 6 months after treatment. All 32 patients showed significant improvement of both subjective and objective obstruction parameters.
