Abstract
BTX-A injection is a safe and promising treatment modality for a variety of lower urinary tract dysfunctions for both skeletal and smooth muscle dysfunction. In our series, BTX-A is equally effective in women as it is in men. When injected into the sphincter, the risk of stress incontinence is low. Bladder injections with BTX-A are effective for not only neurogenic detrusor overactivity, but also overactive bladder. BTX-A can even be considered for interstitial cystitis.
