OBJECTIVE: This case report describes the use of sacral neuromodulation to treat urinary retention after sexual abuse. METHODS: Sacral neuromodulation was added to therapeutic regimen of a 38-year-old woman in whom chronic, complete urinary retention developed after psychological and sexual abuse during childhood. RESULTS: The combination of psychotherapy and neuromodulation restored the patient's ability to void, whereas psychotherapy alone had not. CONCLUSIONS: Although a multifactorial etiology of retention cannot be ruled out in this patient, neuromodulation might effectively treat urinary retention in cases of a conversion disorder after sexual abuse.
