  • Title: An assessment of surgical treatment of vesical outlet obstruction in spinal cord injury: a review of 471 cases.
    Author: O'Flynn JD.
    Journal: Br J Urol; 1976; 48(7):657-62. PubMed ID: 1016840.
    Abstract:
    An assessment of 139 cases of outlet obstruction following spinal cord injury, in a consecutive series of 471 patients, is presented. The figures in relation to the level and extent of the spinal lesion and the type of operation (transurethral resection and external sphincterotomy), are reviewed. The incidence of repeat operation is recorded and assessed. It is concluded that transurethral resection and external sphincterotomy, either alone or combined, will relieve outlet obstruction in most cases of neuropathic bladder following spinal cord injury.
