  • Title: [Micturition syncope].
    Author: Rudas L, Kardos A, Halmai L, Török T, Pap I.
    Journal: Orv Hetil; 1996 Dec 08; 137(49):2747-9. PubMed ID: 9679610.
    Abstract:
    The micturition syncope is a special manifestation of the so called "situational syncopes". These reflex syncopes share efferent mechanisms with the neurocardiogenic, or vasovagal syncope. A case of a patient is reported, who presented with micturition syncope. The patient's tendency for vasovagal syncope was documented by a positive tilt table test. The uniform premonitory symptoms preceding the two fainting attacks indicated the relation between the episodes. The authors review the literature of the micturition syncope, and discuss the potential pathomechanisms.
