Summary:To assess the value of video-urodynamic study (VUD) in the identification of lower urinary tract voiding dysfunction in female. A total of 126 female patients with sign and symptoms of lower urinary tract voiding dysfunction underwent VUD from December 2008 to January 2011 in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital. The causes of voiding dysfunction were analyzed based on VUD findings. Neurogenic voiding dysfunction was found in 30 patients (23.8%), non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction was found in 96 patients (76.2%). The 72 patients suffered from recurrent urinary tract infection (57.1%) and 23 patients suffered from hydronephrosis (18.3%). Based on special characteristics of video-urodynamic study, a total of 126 patients were classified as: (1) Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) was found in 65 patients. Of them, bladder neck obstruction in 40 patients (61.5%), their VUD showed "high pressure-low flow" obstructive curve and synchronic image showed bladder neck did not open in a funnel shape and no contrast was found in ure
