Abstract

Inadequate bladder emptying is a common urinary dysfunction in children.
Proper evaluation of the child to rule out neurogenic cause is highly desirable before labeling him/her a non-neurogenic
neurogenic bladder. This case report describes a male child of 3 years age who presented with clinical features of
neurogenic bladder but found to have no neurogenic cause hence diagnosed as Hinman syndrome. After diagnosis he
was placed on alpha-adrenergic blocker along with psychological support and showed satisfactory response.
