Subarachnoid Phenolglycerin Block of Urinary Incontinence Due to Spinalcord Injury

Three patients with spinal cord injury were treated for incontinence by saddle block with phenolglycerin after drug therapy failed. Cystometry had demonstrated detrusor hyperreflexia. Two patients were improved. There have been no severe complications. These results confirmed that the saddle block with phenolglycerin should be considered as an additional method of treatment of detrusor hyperreflexia in patient with a spinal cord injury.
