Condition(s) studied

Urinary Bladder Sphincter Disorder

Study summary

A significant proportion of patients with functional neurological disorders (FND) report urinary, anorectal or genitosexual disorders. However, until now, no study has focused on bladder-sphincter disorders in patients with FND. The symptoms of this pathology are, therefore, not precisely characterized.

Thus, the objective of this research is to specify if urinary, anorectal or sexual disorders can be observed in patients suffering from functional neurological disorders and to better describe them in order to propose better therapeutic options.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patient over 18 years of age * Diagnosis of Functional Neurological Disorders according to DSM 5 criteria * No neurological comorbidity that could account for the sphincter disorders * Normal cerebral and spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging. * Patient affiliated to a French social security system * Patient informed and not objecting to participate in the study Non inclusion Criteria : * Presence of neurological comorbidity that can account for sphincter disorders (e.g. multiple sclerosis, chronic neuropathy, etc.) * Pregnancy in progress * Candidate for surgery or locoregional treatment * Patient subject to legal protection measures. * Patient under state medical assistance

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • presence of at least one bladder-sphincter disorder — inclusion
    This primary endpoint will be measured by the score of the questionnairies which will define the presence of a vesicosphincter disorder (USP), anorectal disorder (Kess and Wexner) or sexual genital disorder (FSFI/IIEF5)
