Summary Videocystourethrography was used to investigate 214 incontinent women. Their urinary symptoms were assessed in relation to urodynamic findings. Nocturia, nocturnal enuresis and urge incontinence were the most reliable symptoms distinguishing those patients with detrusor instability. Frequency of micturition and urgency were less reliable in this respect, and it was felt that these symptoms were not indications for Videocystourethrography.
