| Abstract | The purpose of the present study was to study the outcome of medical treatments and methods used to treatvesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in patients with spinal cord lesions. We retrospectively collected data from the outpatient records of73 spinal cord lesion patients with VUR. The treatments for VUR were anticholinergics (89%) and antibiotics (41%). Themethods of bladder management undertaken were indwelling urethral catheterization (67%), intermittent catheterization (30%),and use of a urinary condom (3%). After VUR treatment, 58.9% of the patients showed VUR improvement. Patients withunilateral VUR responded to treatment better than patient with bilateral VUR. However, no significant evidence of certainmedications or bladder management was more effective than others at treating VUR in patients with spinal cord injuries. |
