OnabotulinumA toxin injections: A novel option for management of refractory nocturnal enuresis

While not entirely understood, nocturnal enuresis (NE) has been considered pathophysiologically distinct from other non-neurogenic voiding disorders. We believe that a significant component of the pathology is due to bladder overactivity. Intravesical Onabotulinumtoxin A (OBTA) injections are utiliz...

We believe that a significant component of the pathology is due to bladder overactivity. Intravesical Onabotulinumtoxin A (OBTA) injections are utilized in overactive bladder management. We hypothesized that OBTA injections would be efficacious for NE management in pediatric patients with symptoms refractory to conventional therapies. A retrospective cohort analysis of patients
