Urology # 335Oct 13, 2026Diagnosis & Management of Neurogenic Bladder
How do you decide if a neurogenic bladder is a safety problem or a quality of life problem for each patient, and how do you move from guideline risk categories to a real surveillance plan? On this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Anjali Kapur interviews Dr. Benjamin Brucker, professor of urology and director of neuro-urology at NYU Langone Health, about navigating neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. They start with the AUA and SUFU guideline framework, covering history, physical exam, mobility, cognition, voiding diaries, and risk stratification to sort patients into low, unknown, or high risk. Dr. Brucker outlines the findings that move a patient between categories and the workup needed, from renal ultrasound and urodynamics to identifying unsafe storage pressures and elevated post-void residual.
