Abstract

Objectives: Describe the technique, indications and the correct interpretation given the findings in different clinical entities, and to serve as a guide for urologists, urology residents and even medical students.

Material and methods: A literature search was performed using Pubmed, Cochrane and Scopus database for articles and guidelines published between January 1970 and June 2020.

Results: Videourodynamics is a diagnostic procedure that combines the urodynamic study with simultaneous images of the lower urinary tract to assess the anatomy and function during the different phases of micturition.This study provides important information that can modify therapeutic behavior and therefore clinical outcomes of patients.

Conclusion: The role of videourodynamics becomes more relevant nowadays in the assessment of the pathophysiology of voiding dysfunction, being the gold standard for the workup of neurogenic bladder and voiding dysfunction in young people and women and, possibly in persistent/recurrent incontinence in both men and women.

Objetivo: Describir la técnica, las indicaciones y la correcta interpretación dados los hallazgos en diferentes entidades clínicas, y servir como guía para urólogos, residentes de urología e incluso estudiantes de medicina.MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica internacional de artículos o guías en las bases de datos PubMed, Cochrane y Scopus entre enero de 1970 y junio de 2020.

Resultados: La videourodinamia es un procedimiento diagnóstico que integra el estudio urodinámico con imágenes simultáneas del tracto urinario inferior para evaluar la anatomía y la función durante las diferentes fases de micción. Este estudio aporta información relevante que puede modificar la conducta terapéutica y por ende los desenlaces clínicos de los pacientes.CONCLUSIÓN: El papel de la videourodinamia cada vez toma más relevancia en la evaluación de la fisiopatología de la disfunción miccional, siendo incluso el patrón de oro para el estudio de disfunción vesical neurogénica y trastornos del vaciado en jóvenes y mujeres y, posiblemente la incontinencia recidivada tanto en hombres como en mujeres.
