PURPOSE
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common pediatric disease. In 20% standard treatments are insuf-
ficient. Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (PTNS) might promising in these children. It is proven
effective in adults but inadequately studied in children. Our aim is to study effect and feasibility of
PTNS. A prospective, observational study starts in 2017. We present the pilot results here.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Patients of 7-16 yrs with therapy-resistant OAB of two centers were included. All patients received
30 minutes of PTNS for 12 subsequent weeks.
Parameters were collected before and after treatment.
RESULTS
A total of 7 (4 boys/ 3 girls) were included, aged 9 (8-12) yrs.
Maximum bladder capacity (MBC) as percentage of expected bladdercapacity for age (EBC)
increased with a mean of 34 (23-50) % (see table). Overall incontinence episodes decreased.
