NEUROGENIC BLADDER Some children are born with or develop bladders that do not function properly. These children may have a history of myelomeningocele (spina bifida), have had a traumatic spinal injury, were born with bladder exstrophy (bladder open face at the skin), or have had a congenital bladder obstruction. These patients often have urinary incontinence and may develop dilatation of their ureters and kidneys. Whether due to abnormal nerve innervation of the bladder muscle and/or urethral sphincters, or to chronic obstructive bladder damage most patients with this bladder condition are unable to empty their bladder on their own. Management of children or adolescents with neurogenic bladder conditions are individualized to each patient and their parents. Our main goals are to preserve function of the kidneys and then to obtain full urinary continence in between urinating which is most often assisted with catheterizations if catheterization is required. In those individuals in which we have fully maximized their medical management and clean intermittent catheterization skills and they remain wet or are having progressive dilatation of their ureters or kidneys, we encourage moving ahead to surgical intervention to optimize their condition. In patients who are on clean intermittent catheterization and are having difficulty passing the catheter through the urethra into the bladder or would just prefer an easier more accessible rout for catheterization we've been able to offer them the Mitrofanoff procedure. The Mitrofanoff is a catheterizable non-leaking dime size stoma which we conceal by placing it in the base of the umbilicus (belly button). The appendix is used to communicate the bladder to the umbilicus and is fashioned so to accept an 8-14 french catheter for emptying the bladder and not allow urinary leakage. The patient simply lifts his/her T-shirt places the catheter into the concealed opening in the umbilicus and then empties the bladder. For children or adolescents who are confined to a wheelchair and/or this would allow for their catheterizations independent of others' assistance, this has been most gratifying.

Feedback Neurogenic Bladder: NIDDK Article title: Neurogenic Bladder: NIDDK Main condition: Neurogenic bladder Conditions: Neurogenic bladder For the urinary system to work right, the muscles and nerves must work together to hold urine in the bladder and then release it at the right time. Nerves carry messages from the bladder to the brain, letting the brain know when the bladder is full. The nerves carry messages from the brain to the muscles of the bladder telling them either to tighten or release. In a neurogenic bladder, the nerves that are supposed to carry these messages do not work properly. Neurogenic bladder can lead to different kinds of problems. It may result in urine leakage if the muscles holding urine in do not get the right message. For other people, a neurogenic bladder means that their muscles do not get the message that it is time to let go. If the bladder becomes too full, urine may back up into the kidneys, and the extra pressure causes damage to the tiny blood vessels in the kidney. Or urine that stays too long may lead to an infection in the bladder or ureters, which are the tubes that carry urine from the kidney to the bladder.

BLADDER DYSFUNCTION AND INCONTINENCE I. Components of the system: Bladder Dome ("body") lies above a line formed partly by ureteral orifices and post. ridge of the trigone Base includes trigone, neck, and functional internal sphincter "Internal urinary sphincter," aka bladder neck More important for maintenance of continence than external sphincter Innervated by sympathetic fibers through hypogastric nn. Interruption of innervation may result in stress incontinence II. Physiology and pathophysiology Normal neurologic control of bladder function achieves continence and, during voiding, coordination of detrusor contraction with external sphincter relaxation. Descending pathyways from midbrain and pons are essential for coordination of detrusor and ext. urethr. sphincter; damage from lesions there or high in spinal cord results in "vesical-sphincter dyssynergia" (see below) Urinary retention carries with it the complications of infection and hydronephrosis, both of which can result in renal failure

Hospital Directory Neurogenic Bladder more about Neurogenic Bladder The bladder is a balloon like muscular sac where urine is stored. When this sac becomes full, it is excreted. A pathway of nerves from the bladder carry messages to the brain letting it know weather the bladder is full or empty. The brain, then using another set of nerves, sends messages to the muscles of the bladder telling them to relax and allow the bladder to empty. Once empty, the brain signals the bladder muscles to tighten in order to store urine again. Any interference in this mechanism leads to a condition known as

You should speak to your physician or make an appointment to be seen if you have questions or concerns about this information or your medical condition. Index Neurogenic Bladder What is a neurogenic bladder? A neurogenic bladder is a loss of normal control of bladder function caused by damaged nerves. There are 2 kinds of neurogenic bladder problems: overactive and underactive. If you have an overactive bladder, you are not able to control when or how much you urinate. If you have an underactive bladder, it holds much more urine than normal. Because you cannot feel when the bladder is full, you leak small amounts of urine as bladder pressure builds. How does it occur? Nerves and the muscles of the urinary system work together to hold urine in the bladder and then release it when you go to the bathroom. Nerves tell the brain when the bladder is full. The nerves carry messages from the brain to the muscles of the bladder, telling the muscles either to tighten or to release. In a neurogenic bladder, the nerves that carry these messages do not work properly. Neurogenic bladder may be caused by: injuries or birth defects that affect the brain or spinal cord diabetes polio Parkinson's disease multiple sclerosis infection

X-rays are taken while the bladder is full and while the patient is urinating (voiding) to determine if fluid is forced out of the bladder through the urethra (normal) or up through the ureters into the kidney (vesicoureteral reflux). This study is usually done with the patient lying on an X-ray table.
