Abstract
The bladder function was studied in 15 urologically normal females over 40 years of age. They volunteered for this study which consisted of urodynamic studies and lateral micturition cystourethrography. The data are presented in tables. There are only small differences in the urodynamic parameters between this material and a material of women under 40 years of age. It is clearly demonstrated that a gynaecological cystocele tells little or nothing about the bladder function or bladder support. None of the cystometrograms showed uninhibited detrusor contractions. It is underlined to repeat the micturition studies several times in order to obtain a voiding event which the subject recognizes as normal.Keywords
