Multiple sclerosis patients with bladder dysfunction are prone to have an asymptomatic urinary tract infection. Because bladder function abnormalities occur at some time in 70% to 90% of multiple sclerosis patients, a quantitative estimate of the bacterial concentration in the urine as well as a culture is mandatory. Treatment of bladder dysfunction or infection will vary according to the post-voiding residual volume. A patient with multiple sclerosis and asymptomatic urinary tract infection is reported that highlights strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of the urinary tract infection.
