  • Reference work entry
Textbook of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery

Abstract

The urinary bladder function is perturbed in patients with movement disorders. The following chapter presents the etiology of bladder dysfunction in patients with movement disorders and the effect of deep brain stimulation on the bladder function.
