Objective: To investigate the correlations between ultrasonographic bladder wall thickness (BWTh) and urodynamic study (UDS) findings and estimate the diagnostic value of BWTh for prediction of DO in children with monosymptomatic and non-monosymptomatic primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE).

Patients And Methods: Ultrasound measurements (US) and UDS were performed on a total of 100 children, 50 consecutive boys and 50 consecutive girls, 6-14 years old, with monosymptomatic PNE (group 1, n = 75), and non-monosymptomatic PNE (group 2, n = 25). The US Protocol was specially designed for the evaluation of BWTh.
