A high incidence of nocturnal incontinence has been a problem in patients undergoing continent urinary diversion when intact bowel segments are used. Detubularization has been advocated to solve this problem. Fifteen patients underwent continent urinary diversions and 4 underwent bladder augmentation with a variety of intestinal segments. Detubularization of the right colon anastomosed to the urethra was used in the first 3 patients, all of whom experienced nocturnal incontinence. Urodynamic studies showed high pressure contractions of the intestinal pouch of 60 to 100 cm. water pressure after the pouch was filled with 50 to 150 cc fluid. Incorporation of an ileal patch into the detubularized segment of colon was effective in reducing these pressures to 15 to 60 cm. water. This method reduced but did not eliminate the incidence of nocturnal incontinence. It is suggested that other factors may account for this problem.

Objectives: To determine the health utility values (HUVs) of overactive bladder (OAB), defined as urinary urgency, usually accompanied by urinary daytime or nocturnal frequency, with or without urinary incontinence, among adults aged ≥65 years and to assess the HUV decrements (disutilities) of OAB according to its severity.
Methods: This cross-sectional Internet-based study was conducted between 2 and 9 November 2023, with quota sampling with equal probability for each sex and age group (age 65-74 years and ≥75 years). OAB was defined as an urgency score of ≥2 points and a total score of ≥3 points based on the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score.

Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is common in children and can significantly impact the quality of life in affected children and their families. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the causes, diagnostics, and treatment, with a particular focus on nonorganic urinary incontinence and nocturnal enuresis. Accurate diagnostics are essential to differentiate between organic and functional causes, as well as to distinguish primary from secondary forms of urinary incontinence.

A 41-year-old man with a history of obesity, hypertension, and smoking suffered from numbness and weakness in both lower limbs. He was diagnosed with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and ligamentum flavum in the cervical and thoracic spine by X-rays, CT, and MRI. The patient underwent laminectomies at T2 and T3 levels, along with posterior fusion from T1 to T4, to address an upper thoracic spine lesion causing sensory deficits up to T5 and gait disturbances.

Patients with overactive bladder syndrome-wet (OAB-wet) experience urgency urinary incontinence, particularly urinary frequency and nocturia. Nocturnal enuresis (NE) is less addressed among OAB-wet patients. The study evaluated the prevalence of NE, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), urodynamic factors, and social factors in OAB-wet patient.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the differences in lower urinary tract function and treatment response between non-monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (NMNE) pediatric patients with and without constipation.
Method: We retrospectively analyzed pediatric patients diagnosed as NMNE from our enuresis database. Inclusion criteria were children aged 5 years or older with a follow-up duration of at least one month.
