Nocturnal enuresis.

Primary enuresis is essentially of two main types - the common diurnal-nocturnal type with associated bladder instability and the less common nocturnal type which shows normal cystometry. The importance of depth of sleep in both types is stressed, particularly the former. A rationale of treatment, self-monitored, voluntary, escalating cystometry, is described.

The technique and results of pyleocalycotomy for staghorn calculi.

In 10 kidneys treated by the sinus approach the overall recurrence rate was 40%. In 48 kidneys treated by pyelocalycotomy the overall recurrence rate was 17% but only 6% in functioning kidneys with infective stones. Infection was controlled in 75% of patients from whom all stone fragments were removed radiologically but all patients in whom fragments remained, or who developed further calculi, remained infected--with Proteus in 75% of cases. All patients with kidneys completely cleared of calculi in whom infection was controlled remained stone-free for periods up to 10 years.

A urodynamic view of bladder outflow obstruction in the female: factors influencing the results of treatment.

169 female patients with outlet obstruction have been studied urodynamically. The results of treatment of the outlet obstruction in 102 patients have been analysed and the reason for the failures discussed. Patients with stable detrusors and those with symptoms of recurrent urinary tract infection responded well to treatment, provided this relieved the obstruction adequately; symptomatic relief was less common in patients with unstable detrusors, despite adequate outflow readjustment.
