摘要
Neurogenic bladder dysfunction often requires treatment early in life. Intermittent catheterization is an accepted means of treatment in older children and adults but its use in young children and infants has been limited because of fear of urethral injury. The results of managing 42 patients less than 6 years old by intermittent catheterization are presented. Excellent results were achieved even in small infants.
