They are also linked to a high risk of serious morbidities.Aim of the work: was to evaluate the LUTS associated with neurological disorders in a sample of Egyptian patients.Patients and Methods: This study conducted on 104 patients treated in our Neurology and urology clinic at Al-Azhar University hospitals from January 2018 to January 2019. Patients divided into several subgroups according to the neurological diagnosis, and the following data were collected: age, sex, irritative symptoms [frequency, urgency, and urge incontinence], obstructive symptoms [straining, slow stream, hesitancy, retention of urine], timing [before or after neurological disease], and finally evolution of symptoms either solved or persistent.Results: We studied 104 patients; 53 were females and 51 males. LUTS were found in 44 out of 104 patients [42.3%]. LUTS were more presented in patients with neurovascular, spinal cord and demyelinating disorders. Urinary urge incontinence was the most common symptom [70.4%]. It was found to be predominant in the neurovascular and demyelinating diseases. In 30 out 44 subjects, the urinary symptoms persist, in 14 out of them the urinary problems were treated.Conclusions: Storage symptoms are more common, mostly urge urinary incontinence. Neurovascular diseases, spinal cord, and demyelinating diseases are the most common neurological disorders associated with LUTS. A multidisciplinary method should be encouraged for the management of these patients including the whole team of rehabilitation.Ahmed AboelsaadMohie-eldin MohamedMohamed HindawyAl-Azhar University, Faculty of Medicine (Damietta)articlelower urinary tract symptoms [luts]neurological diseasesurge incontinencequality of lifeegyptianMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Medical Arts, Vol 1, Iss 2, Pp 98-102 (2019)
