A case of sacral herpes zoster with reversible neurogenic bladder dysfunction causing urinary retention is presented. Gradual reversibility of the motoric paralysis of the detrusor was demonstrated in cystometrograms. It is stressed that treatment should be primarily conservative and that repeated urodynamic examinations is essential.

D001750	Urinary Bladder, Neurogenic	Dysfunction of the URINARY BLADDER due to disease of the central or peripheral nervous system pathways involved in the control of URINATION. This is often associated with SPINAL CORD DISEASES, but may also be caused by BRAIN DISEASES or PERIPHERAL NERVE DISEASES.

D006562	Herpes Zoster	An acute infectious, usually self-limited, disease believed to represent activation of latent varicella-zoster virus (HERPESVIRUS 3, HUMAN) in those who have been rendered partially immune after a previous attack of CHICKENPOX. It involves the SENSORY GANGLIA and their areas of innervation and is characterized by severe neuralgic pain along the distribution of the affected nerve and crops of clustered vesicles over the area.
