Abstract

Intradetrusor injection of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) is an effective option for managing patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) who do not respond to or tolerate oral pharmacologic agents. There is level I evidence that intradetrusor injection of onabotulinumtoxinA for refractory NDO in patients with multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injury is associated with a significantly greater achievement of goals and improved performance in urodynamic studies than placebo. Pilot studies or small case series support BTX-A for NDO in patients with Parkinson's disease and cerebrovascular accident. BTX-A seems to be effective in children with myelomeningocele. However, no adult data exists.
