[Intradetrusor injections of botulinum toxin A to treat urinary incontinence due to bladder overactivity during idiopathic Parkinson's disease].

During idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD), lower urinary tract symptoms and dysfunctions are frequent, dominated by overactive bladder and detrusor overactivity (OAB, DO). Intradetrusor Injection (IDI) of Botulinum Toxin A (BTA) is recommended as second-line treatment for neurogenic urinary incontinence related to DO in multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury patients. However, there is little data on BTA IDI to treat incontinence owing to OAB and DO during idiopathic Parkinson's disease. The objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy and tolerance of BTA IDI in patients suffering IPD. We conducted a retrospective study in IPD patients treated with BTA IDI from 2012 to 2018. For each patient we compared patient clinical and urodynamic data at baseline before the first injection and 8 weeks following the injection. We defined 3 levels of effects (perfect, improved, failure), corresponding to 3-dimension composite criteria: clinical, quality of life (Likert scale), urodynamics. Sixteen patients were included from 2012 to 2018. The median age was 73 (70-78.25). The median number of micturition/day before and after TBA was 13 (10-16) and 9 (6.75-13.25) (p=0.022). The median number of pad used/day before and after BTA was 5.4 (2-5) and 1 (0-5) (p=0.035). Median USP scores for OAB was 15.5 (11.75-20) and 14 (6.75-15.25). Median score on the Likert scale was 1 (0-1.5) meaning "slight improvement" felt by the patient. The median maximum cystometric capacity raised from 130cm In this retrospective study we observe some short-term efficacy of TBA IDI to treat urinary incontinence owing to OAB/DO in patients with IPD in 60% of patients. These results are consistent with findings from previous retrospective studies. Prospective data coming from larger cohorts are now tremendously needed to clarify the best patient responders profiles, the actual TBA dose, and eventually to define TBA IDI place in the therapeutic algorithm of IPD patients' incontinence. 4.
