Application of magnetic resonance sacral neurography combined with 3D printing in sacral nerve modulation in neurogenic bladder patients with special comorbidities / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

This paper discusses the application of MRN combined with 3D printing in SNM in neurogenic bladder patients with special comorbidities. In this study, 21 cases of neurogenic bladder patients with special comorbidities involved, including 14 cases into the control group and 7 cases in the experimental group. Traditional X-ray guidance was used in the control group, while the MRN combined with 3D printing navigation template positioning was used in the experimental group. Compared with those in the control group, the X-ray fluoroscopy, number of punctures, puncture time, intraoperative adjustment and testing time were significantly decreased in the experimental group. The difference of implantable pulse generator implantation rates between the two groups was statistically significant.
