Objective: Immediate postoperative urinary retention (UR) and voiding dysfunction (VD) are some factors limiting outpatient procedure for mid-urethral sling (MUS) surgery in women presenting with stress urinary incontinence. The objective of the current review was to report the main predictive factors associated with immediate postoperative UR/VD following MUS surgery in women., Methods: A systematic review was performed using Medline database, according to PRISMA methodology, using following keywords midurethral sling; tension-free vaginal tape; TVT; transobturator tape; TOT; predicting factor; voiding dysfunction; urinary retention; postvoid residual; postoperative residue of urine., Results: Thirteen studies were included. Main clinical predictive factors associated with immediate postoperative urinary retention (UR) and voiding dysfunction (VD) were: previous pelvic surgery (hysterectomy, incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse surgery) [OR: from 3.7 ((CI95%: 1.14-12.33); P=0.029)] to 8.93 [(CI95%:1.17-61.1); P=0.035)], previous UR [OR: 415 (CI95%: 20-8619); P<0.001], age over 65 y/o [OR: 3,72 (CI95%:1.40-9.9); P<0.01], and general anesthesia [OR: 4.5 (CI95%:1.1-18.9); P=0.02]. Urodynamic predictive factors were underactive bladder at cystometry [OR: from 2.52 ([CI95%: 1.03-6.13]; P=0.042) to 5.6 ([IC95%: 1.6-19.2]; P=0.02] and preoperative maximum flow rate (Qmax) (the prevalence of UR was ranging from 12 to 35% when Qmax was under 15ml/s, versus 0% when Qmax was over 30ml/s)., Conclusion: Predictive factors associated with immediate postoperative UR/VD following MUS surgery in women were age over 65 y/o, previous pelvic surgery or previous UR, underactive bladder and preoperative Qmax under 15ml/s., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Introduction: To specifically introduce continent cystostomy - indications, surgical technique, complications and management - to the nurses working in a urology department., Method: The present article is based on a review of the literature and author's experience in continent cystostomy., Results: Continent cystostomy is a neo-conduit placed between the bladder and the anterior abdominal wall using the digestive tract. It is usually performed in patients with bladder voiding dysfunction who cannot undergo clean self-intermittent catheterization through the urethra. The high success rate (>84%) associated with this procedure should not hide the frequent associated complications with the conduit., Conclusion: Even if continent cystostomy is associated with good mid- and long-term functional outcomes, it requires a close follow-up and in some cases "adjustments"., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Objective: To highlight the existence of pseudo-dyssynergia in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease (IPD) constituting a functional bladder outlet obstruction., Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by including men with a confirmed diagnose of IPD who participated in the SIROCCO rehabilitation program. Patients included clinically exhibited overactive bladder and voiding dysfunction without prostatic hypertrophy ultrasounded. They have been clinically assessed by the Urinary Symptoms Profile (USP) urinary symptom score. Bladder outlet obstruction was assessed by the pressure-flow study. Urodynamic obstruction has been quantified by the bladder obstruction index which depends on detrusor pressure at maximum flow rate and maximum flow rate. It has been defined by a BOOI>40., Results: The pressure-flow profile was analyzed in 5 patients who met the inclusion criteria. In this group of 5 patients with IPD, the diagnosis was made on average 10.6 years (7-14) before the pressure-flow studies were performed. Our results objectified 4 patients obstructive among 5 and one equivocal patient. A striated pseudo-dyssynergia was found in the 3 obstructive patients and associated with a smooth pseudodyssynergia in one patient., Conclusion: We have observed, in this short series, a pseudo-dyssynergia by subjects suffering from IPD., Level of Evidence: 3., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Purpose: The lazy bladder syndrome (LBS) is characterized by an infrequent voiding, a large bladder capacity without neurological or urological disorders. In spite of being relatively common, there is little literature about it. The aim of our study was to compare the clinical features and urodynamic findings in asymptomatic or symptomatic patients with lazy bladder syndrome., Patients and Methods: We reviewed the charts of 126 adult patients diagnosed with lazy bladder syndrome. Clinical and radiological features, urodynamic findings and therapeutic management were evaluated. With these data, we divided patients into 2 groups: asymptomatic and symptomatic patients. After, we performed a comparative analysis of the data., Results: The incident of LBS was significantly higher in women (81%). Twenty-one patients were asymptomatic (17%), 105 patients were symptomatic (83%). The patients with symptomatic LBS were significantly older (54.3 years ± 14.7). Voiding dysfunction (53%) and urinary retention (27%) were the most common symptoms in symptomatic group. In the uroflowmetry test, maximum and mean uroflow were significantly higher in asymptomatic group (P=0.0074). Reduced bladder sensation revealed no difference in the 2 groups, but in the symptomatic group, detrusor has also a poor contractility (P=0.0001). Nineteen patients (18%) had uro-nephrological complications., Conclusion: LBS is certainly underestimated. Voiding dysfunction, urinary retention in infrequent voiders or uro-nephrological complication (urinary tract infection with fever, ureteral reflux…) should recall LBS diagnosis. The hypothesis of bladder structural failure or autonomic nervous system dysfunction may be discussed (suggested)., Level of Evidence: 5., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)
