Neurogenic bladder is bladder dysfunction (flaccid or spastic) caused by neurological damage. Symptoms may include overflow incontinence, frequency, urgency, urge incontinence, and retention. The risk of serious complications (recurrent infections, vesicourethral reflux, autonomic dysreflexia) is high. Diagnosis involves study by imaging and cystoscopy or urodynamic tests. Treatment includes probing or measures to trigger urination.
