Grainger, J. O'Flynn, J. Fitzpatrick] Summary: A review of the urological status of 124 women with spinal cord injuries admitted over a 25-year period to the National Medical Rehabilitation Centre is presented. In all, 84 (68%) of these patients are currently catheter-free, 27 (22%) have permanent catheter drainage, 11 perform clean, intermittent self-catheterisation and 2 have undergone urinary diversions. There are many reports on the urological follow-up of patients with spinal cord injuries, but few of these have dealt with women. It is clear that whereas males may be kept ‘dry' with the aid of external urinals, women present a distinct problem. The experience at our centre clearly shows that women less frequently develop outlet obstruction and suffer less from incontinence. This study assesses the status of 124 women, with particular reference to continence and catheter independence. Springer-Verlag, 1990 Grainger R.
