Overactive bladder in cervical spondylotic myelopathy

Post-operative improvement of OAB symptoms in cervical spondylotic myelopathy patients was low, which indicated that OAB was most frequently attributable to non-neurogenic and idiopathic, but not neurogenic, causes. It is considered necessary to tell patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy that the possibility of post-operative OAB symptom improvement is not high when the explanation for informed consent is given before the operation.
