Panelist discusses how neurogenic bladder in neurological conditions manifests distinctly based on lesion location. Patients with multiple sclerosis typically experience detrusor overactivity and sphincter dyssynergia, leading to urgency and retention. Parkinson disease commonly presents with overactive bladder symptoms and nocturia due to impaired basal ganglia control. Cauda equina syndrome and lumbar disc herniation often result in detrusor areflexia and decreased sensation, causing retention and overflow incontinence.
