External Urethral Sphincter Botulinum Toxin Injection to Treat Pseudodyssynergia in Patients with Cerebral Palsy
To evaluate urinary outcomes following cystoscopic external urinary sphincter onabotulinumtoxinA (BTX) injections in patients with CP. Adults with cerebral palsy (CP) can suffer from bladder outlet obstruction and urinary retention due to a spastic external urethral sphincter ( “pseudodysynergia”). We have used BTX injections into the sphincter to relieve the obstruction and allow patients to maintain spontaneous voiding rather than intermittent catheterization. (Source: Urology)

Is Allium Ureteral Stent Feasible for the Treatment of Ileal-Ureteral Anastomotic Stenosis? A Case Report
CONCLUSION: Allium URS is effective in the treatment of hydronephrosis caused by ileal-ureteral anastomotic stenosis. Although complications, such as haematuria, lumbago and urinary tract irritation, are rare, complications, such as stent displacement and stone formation, may occur. Hence, caution must be exercised when considering the use of Allium URSs in the treatment of patients with ileal-ureteral anastomotic stenosis.PMID:38374021 | DOI:10.56434/j.arch.esp.urol.20247701.15 (Source: Archivos Espanoles de Urologia)
