Popis: | We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravesical onabotulinum toxin A (onaBoNTA) injections for the treatment of children diagnosed with refractory overactive bladder (OAB) by using non-invasive methods. A total of 31 pediatric patients with a mean age of 10.2 years received intravesical onaBoNTA injection at the dose of 10 U/kg (max: 200 U). Twenty-one patients who failed to respond to the first injection, received second injection 6 months after the first one. The patients were retrospectively evaluated after the 1st and the 2nd injections by means of standardized questionnaire forms and voiding diary records. In the 6-month follow-up, 10 patients (32.2%) were determined to have full response after the first injection. The number of patients with partial response and no response were found to be 15 (48.4%) and 6 (19.4%), respectively. The mean value of Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Symptom Score (DVISS) of the patients with full response was 8.5 before the injection, which decreased to 1 at 6-month follow-up and to 0.5 at 12-month follow-up (p |
