  • Title: Bladder dysfunction in patients with diabetes.
    Author: Gomez CS, Kanagarajah P, Gousse AE.
    Journal: Curr Urol Rep; 2011 Dec; 12(6):419-26. PubMed ID: 21894526.
    Abstract:
    With diabetes mellitus (DM) reaching epidemic proportions, the identification of voiding dysfunction as a common and burdensome complication of this disease is critical. Research into diabetic voiding dysfunction significantly lags behind other complications of DM, such as retinopathy and nephropathy. Recent studies have revealed that DM predisposes patients to a wide range of lower urinary tract dysfunction, from the classic diabetic cystopathy of incomplete emptying to urgency incontinence. In this review, we discuss the current concepts of diabetic voiding dysfunction with a critical analysis of the available evidence.
