    Author: Seiferth J, Heising J, Larkamp H.
    Journal: Urol Int; 1978; 33(5):279-84. PubMed ID: 360551.
    Abstract:
    This is a report of a special method of a temporary intravesical electrostimulation of the bladder for the treatment of the urinary incontinence of spina bifida children. The technique with presentation of apparatus and catheter is described in detail. The criterias for the selection of the patients are explained, the most important of which is the response of the detrusor muscle during the stimulation recorded by uromanometry. 26 spina bifida children were treated. There is at least a success in 50% of the patients, if the criteria are fulfilled.
