Pitfalls of diagnosing and treating enuresis
- Urologická klinika LF UP a FN Olomouc
Failed treatment for monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE) is still encountered by physicians caring for children with this type of
incontinence. The potential failure of treatment for MNE is caused not only by multifactorial etiology and unavailability of a definite causal
treatment, but very often by poor cooperation with the child and his family and sometimes even by misdiagnosing the actualform of MNE.
The article deals with some possible mistakes made by the parents as well as the physician in the diagnostic and therapeutic process.
