The use of botulinum toxin for the treatment of neurogenic detrusor overactivity was first described in 2000 and thereafter botulinum toxin has also been used in non-neurogenic overactive bladder. In current guidelines intravesical injection of onabotulinumtoxin A in refractory patients is recommended. Our aim is to provide some clinically relevant recommendations from the Working Group Urologische Funktionsdiagnostik und Urologie der Frau for diagnostics and treatment with onabotulinumtoxin A of patients with non-neurogenic overactive bladder.
