IntroductionIntravesical botulinum toxin (BoNT-A) is a safe and effective treatment for overactive bladder syndrome. There are many reports on the clinical experience with BoNT-A, especially in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity. The US Food and Drug Administration has recently approved its use for idiopathic overactive bladder (iOAB). Various studies have reported positive results for iOAB in the short-term. Yet little is known about the results after repeated BoNT-A injections. In this study, we evaluated the long-term results of botulinum toxin (BoNT-A) in women with iOAB.
