AB  - PURPOSE: To investigate the role of urodynamic study (UDS) in female patients 
      with overactive bladder (OAB) analyzing the relationship between OAB symptoms and 
      female voiding dysfunction (FVD). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed the clinical 
      and urodynamic data of 163 women with OAB symptoms. OAB symptoms were categorized 
      as dry and wet. FVD was described as detrusor underactivity (DUA), which was 
      defined as a maximum flow rate (Qmax) of </= 15 mL/s associated with a detrusor 
      pressure at Qmax (PdetQ max) of </= 20 cmH2O, along with bladder outlet obstruction 
      (BOO), which was defined as a Qmax of </= 15 mL/s with a PdetQ max of > 20 cmH2O. 
      Clinical and urodynamic results were compared between patients with dry and wet 
      symptoms and between those with and without FVD. RESULTS: 78 (47.9%) had dry, and 
      85 (52.1%) had wet symptoms. The entire group had a relatively low Qmax (15.1 +/- 
      6.6 mL/s) and relatively high number of BOO (42.9%, 70/163) and DUA (8.6%, 
      14/163). A significantly higher number of patients with wet symptoms had detrusor 
      overactivity compared to those with dry, as detected by the UDS (p < 0.05). No 
      significant differences were found in BOO and DUA number between dry and wet 
      groups. Further, the international prostate symptom score did not different 
      significantly between patients with and without FVD. CONCLUSION: A significant 
      number of women with OAB had voiding dysfunction. However, the OAB symptoms 
      themselves were not useful for predicting the presence of FVD. Therefore, UDS may 
      be necessary for accurate diagnosis in women with OAB symptoms.
