Özet

Fowler Sendromu genç kadınlarda üriner retansiyonun bir nedeni olarak 1985 yılında tanımlanmıştır. Bu sendromda problem üretral sfinkter kasında görülen gevşemedeki yetmezliktir ve bu durumu açıklayacak herhangi bir nörolojik bozukluk hastalarda bulunmamaktadır. Bu makalede 36 yaşında, karın ağrısı ve halsizlik yakınmaları ile başvuran, 6 ay önce Fowler Sendromu tanısı alan ve temiz aralıklı kateterizasyon (TAK) yapan olgu sunulmuştur.
