Abstract

In voiding disorders in childhood, after a precise diagnosis, treatment can be provided. Aspecific hygienic and dietetic measures are the basis of care in all micturating disorders and frequently must be established to allow a precise diagnosis. In case of enuresis, restriction of beverage and diuretic foods is recommended in the evening. Other treatments for enuresis should be proposed to motivated children. In the polyuric form of enuresis, the treatment is desmopressin (DDAVP) and in the form with low bladder capacity, alarms or a combination of these 2 treatments. In dysfunctional voiding, after caring for the secondary causes, and depending on the characteristics of the disorder, the first-step treatment is pelvic floor rehabilitation with or without anticholinergic therapy. Other medical treatments are used in a second step. Isolated urethral instability remains controversial.
