Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate in the short and mid-term the success of external sphincterotomy (ES) in neurological patients with detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD). METHODS Retrospective, monocentric study, conducted in 51 patients who had a first ES between January 2003 and June 2018, with at least two years of follow-up. The success of ES was defined by maintenance of reflex voiding mode at the end of follow-up. Secondary outcomes were early postoperative complications, rate of revision, functional impact, urodynamic follow-up and upper urinary tract impact. RESULTS The median age was 50.6 years and the median follow-up was 4.6 years. The success rate was 80% (n=41). Ten patients had to change their voiding mode. For 5 patients, it was related to secondary detrusor low contractility. A second ES was required for 39% of patients. At the end of follow-up, there was a significant improvement in Autonomic Dysreflexia (AD) (26 vs 7 patients, P<0.001), urinary tract infections (UTI) (31 vs 15 patients, P<0.001) and a significant decrease in post-voiding residuals (200 vs 50mL, P<0.001). CONCLUSION ES allowed to maintain reflex voiding in 80% of our patients. It significantly improves AD and UTI despite a high rate of re-operation (39%). A long-term follow-up is mandatory in order not to ignore a recurrence of bladder outlet obstruction and/or decrease in detrusor contractility, which may justify a re-operation or an alternative bladder management. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.
