Feasibility of Deep Brain Stimulation for Controlling the Lower Urinary Tract Functions: An Animal Study

Lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunction is an increasingly common symptom worldwide. Neurological disorders are one of the main causes of LUT dysfunction. Specifically, aging-induced central neurodegeneration affects neurological control of bladder function. Since complex networks of the autonomic nervous system and central nervous system control micturition reflexes (Gomez-Pinilla et al., 2007), central neuromodulations are a potential approach for treating various troublesome of LUT disorders (Ju and Liao, 2016).
