The authors report their experience of neurogenic bladder about 73 cases during 16 years. The analysis of the data permits to affirm that the neurogenic bladder remained a rare pathology, that their aetiologies is acquired in 87.6% of the cases with a predominance of spinal cord traumatisms, which explains the predominance of the pathology among the young subject of masculine sex (middle age of 32 years, sex-ratio is 2.5). The clinical signs are represented by urinary incontinence that constitutes the main motive of consultation, followed by obstructive signs and frequent miction associated to urge miction. The explorations put in evidence an important rate of complications because of the diagnostic delay. The therapeutic management aims to assure a most complete draining of the bladder to low pressure, to assure the continence or at least to manage the incontinence while assuring the comfort and the patient's autonomy.

Purpose: Precise electrode placement is crucial for the success of sacral neuromodulation (SNM). The aim of this study was to explore a more accurate and convenient method for positioning punctures during the first stage of SNM.
Methods: This retrospective study compared preoperative baseline values, intraoperative indicators, postoperative scores, and other clinical data from 130 patients who underwent SNM electrode implantation at our department between 2018 and 2023.
Purpose: Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) is highly prevalent among patients with neurologic disorders. Some studies have demonstrated that implantable neuromodulation can improve symptoms of NLUTD. We seek to describe our experience with sacral and pudendal neuromodulation in patients with NLUTD.

Background: Neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a common consequence of stroke, and it substantially impacts the quality of life and functional independence of affected individuals. Traditional treatment modalities have limitations in achieving optimal outcomes. This study aims to explore the effects of electroacupuncture treatment on bladder function and neurogenic bladder urodynamic characteristics in stroke patients.
