Summary— Sixty‐five patients (33 females and 32 males) with adult enuresis have been assessed cystometrically. Patients with primary enuresis may have either nocturnal enuresis alone or diurnal symptoms as well. Abnormal cystometric patterns were found in a high percentage of both types of enuresis. There was a significant correlation between the presence of diurnal symptoms and bladder instability and between nocturia and instability.
