The reader of this book/e-book may welcome a statement from the editors on the principles underlying the book and a few additional words of explanation. First, the term “neurogenic bladder,” includes all disturbances of function and diseases of the bladder due to disorders arising in the central nervous system, peripheral nerves, or intrinsic nerves and ganglia. The term neurogenic bladder is therefore incorrect and misleading. Neurogenic bladder should be replaced by neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction, but the term neurogenic bladder is still used worldwide for these diseases.
