Abstract

Urinary dysfunction in six rare neurological diseases, i.e., transverse myelitis (TM), Lyme disease, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), herpes zoster, herpes simplex, and aortic dissection (AD), was reviewed, all of which might present with urinary dysfunction. Appropriate management for the bladder may allow maximizing the quality of life in the patients.
