The profile of enuretic patients consulting a hospital urology department was reviewed over a period of 15 months based on 102 cases. The study concerned 47 male subjects and 55female subjects with a mean age of 15 +/- 5.3 years. The mean weekly frequency of enuresis was 5.2 +/- 1.9 and enuresis occurred more than once a night for 41.6% of patients. Enuresis was primary in almost 67% of cases. Various aetiological factors for enuresis were identified from analysis of the clinical data and were generally associated: sleep factor (n=93), bladder factor (n=84), hormonalfactor (n=52). Patients were managed as a function of the factors identified. With a mean follow-up of 6 +/- 2.1 months, cure was obtained in 30.4% of cases and improvement was obtained in 24.5%. The various management problems are discussed as a function of socio-economic realities in Senegal and the authors emphasize the need for a multifactorial approach.
