Botulinum toxin is an effective 2nd line treatment option for treating refractory overactive bladder syndrome and detrusor overactivity. This workshop will provide an overview of the published literature on the subject but will focus on level I evidence from randomized placebo controlled trials. Its use in bladder oversensitivity and painful bladder syndrome will also be discussed. Current knowledge on mechanism of action will be presented. The workshop will deliver practical points, technical aspects of drug delivery, tips and tricks which will be helpful to both new and established users.
