Abstract
The neurological polymorphism of Pure Cerebellar Syndromes (not including the heredodegenerative patterns) led the Authors to try to verify the possible correlations between neurological damages and urodynamic findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS. From 2001 to 2006 thirty patients affected by PCS were studied. They underwent several neurological and urological investigations, including videourodynamics. RESULTS. Sixteen cases (76%) showed urinary incontinence due to non-inhibited detrusor contractions, with no evidence of vesico-sphincter dyssynergia; the remaining patients showed a moderate degree of incoordination. CONCLUSIONS. The authors highlight the basic role of cerebellum in modulating the motor activities and the coordination of the bladder-sphincter structures, also in the light of the outcomes gathered in these patients, who were not suffering from other superior structure deficiencies.
