Abstract
Of 114 patients with myelomeningocele 44 (40 per cent) have no significant urologic disability. Intermittent catheterization has been used in 51 children and was helpful in 13 (26 per cent). Cystometrograms and urethral pressure profiles have been useful as predictive parameters. Causes of intermittent catheterization failures are discussed.
