The department sees individuals across a wide range of neurological disorders that include multiple sclerosis and related inflammatory disorders, dementias, Parkinson’s Disease and Parkinson's plus syndromes, spinal cord and brain tumours and traumatic disorders such as cauda equina injury. Bladder problems such as urinary incontinence and urinary retention are common in these conditions and the service offers a comprehensive urological assessment that includes urodynamics testing.
Kết quả xổ số khả quanThe department offers a holistic approach to the evaluation and treatment of urinary retention in young women, many of whom are eventually found to have a primary disorder of urethral sphincter relaxation (sometimes called Fowler’s syndrome).
Kết quả xổ số khả quanA growing number of individuals with unexplained bladder, sexual, bowel and pelvic floor dysfunction are being referred for evaluating a possible neurological cause, and the department offers a dedicated pelvic neurology service that includes pelvic neurological examination, pelvic neurophysiology testing evaluating the afferent and efferent sacral somatic innervation and urodynamics testing, and has links with neuroradiology.
Kết quả xổ số khả quanDifferent treatments for managing bladder problems, ranging from conservative measures and catheterisation to tibial nerve stimulation (percutaneous and transcutaneous; PTNS and TTNS), botulinum toxin injections (Botox) and sacral neuromodulation, are offered by the service.
Bowel dysfunction is common following neurological disorders and the department offers a dedicated Neurogastroenterology service.
The department also runs a dedicated clinic for women reporting sexual difficulties following neurological disease.

• Neurogenic bowel dysfunction
The department has a strong academic component and is heavily involved in teaching /training of doctors, nurses and other health care professionals. Through its links with UCL and the UCLH/UCL NIHR Biomedical Research Centre, the department is involved in clinical trials and original research exploring the neural control of bladder functions, urogenital dysfunction following neurological disease, non-surgical management options.
