According to the literature, overactive bladder (OB) occurs in 52-80% men with infravesical obstruction (IVO) due to prostatic adenoma, 38% patients retain the disorder after surgical correction of the obstruction. Urodynamic investigation of the lower urinary tract (LUT) function was conducted in 206 patients with prostatic adenoma admitted to the urological clinic of I.M. Sechenov Moscow Medical Academy. All of them had LUT obstruction. Detrusor overactivity was detected in 58.25% cases. This bladder dysfunction played a leading role in development of IVO complications (vesicoureteral reflux, ureterohydronephrosis) entailing marked disorder of the upper urinary tract disorder--chronic renal failure. Thus, early detection of the cause of urodynamic disorders in IVO patients has a great practical value for functional results of surgery.
