Malformation of the lumbosacral region (spina bifida) affects the innervation of the bladder in children. The usual evolution leads to a neurological bladder with small capacity, poor compliancy and overactivity, exposing to incontinence and obstruction to the evacuation of urine. It is responsible for renal failure requiring dialysis and transplantation. Current therapeutics aim to evacuate urine and reduce intravesical pressure. It gradually combines 1) intermittent catheterization, 2) anticholinergics, 3) botulinum toxin (Botox®) injection into the detrusor (bladder muscle) by cystoscopy and 4) surgery (vesicostomy, Bricker, enterocystoplasty). Oxybutynin relaxes the detrusor, improves continence and reduces intravesical pressure. It is usually administered per os, but there are contraindications (glaucoma, myasthenia), side effects (constipation, dry mouth). It can be difficult to sw
