Transection of the spinal cord that interrupts the spinobulbospinal micturition reflex pathway,
abolishes voluntary voiding and initially produces an areflexic bladder with complete urinary …

The lower urinary tract has two main functions, storage and periodic expulsion of urine, that
are regulated by a complex neural control system in the brain and lumbosacral spinal cord …

The lower urinary tract has two main functions, the storage and periodic expulsion of urine,

Lower urinary tract dysfunction is a common problem in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Since the coordination of the urinary bladder and urethra is controlled by the complex …

Micturition is coordinated at the level of the spinal cord and the brainstem. Spinal cord injury
therefore directly interrupts spinal neuronal pathways to the brainstem and results in bladder …

Aims To summarize the changes that occur in the properties of bladder afferent neurons
following spinal cord injury. Methods Literature review of anatomical, immunohistochemical …

A consequence of spinal cord injury is a change in bladder reflex pathways resulting in the
emergence of detrusor hyperreflexia and increased activity of the urethral sphincter. A basis …

The functions of the lower urinary tract to store and periodically release urine are dependent
upon neural circuits located in the brain, spinal cord and peripheral ganglia_ 1, 2 This …

Spinal cord injury disrupts voluntary control of voiding and the normal reflex pathways that
coordinate bladder and urethral sphincter function. The present review addresses studies in …

Patients with suprasacral spinal cord injury usually exhibit severe lower urinary tract
dysfunction, which is generally attributed to loss of supraspinal input to the spinal micturition …
