Purpose: Preoperative prediction of urinary continence in patients with myelodysplasia requiring augmentation cystoplasty is uncertain. To determine reliable factors to predict postoperative urinary continence, we retrospectively analyzed preoperative videourodynamic parameters and urinary continence outcome in a group of patients with myelodysplasia who underwent augmentation ileocystoplasty.

Materials And Methods: Of 75 patients with myelodysplasia with neurogenic bladder dysfunction refractory to conservative management (anticholinergic drugs and clean intermittent catheterization) who underwent augmentation cystoplasty as a single procedure we selected 14 girls and 12 boys without previous vesicostomy drainage and with preoperative and postoperative videourodynamic studies in whom detubularized ileocystoplasty was performed.
