To analyze the effect of electrical nerve stimulation on urinary symptoms in pediatric patients with monosymptomatic primary enuresis refractory to conventional treatment. Three databases (Medline, Embase, and Cochrane) were searched and 160 studies were identified by July 15, 2020. After establishing and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a step-by-step analysis was performed using the title, abstract and full text. The Cochrane Collaboration Tool was then used to analyze the biases of the selected studies. Of the 160 articles found, 03 were selected for this systematic review. In 02 studies there was a significant reduction in the number of wet nights/week after electrical nerve stimulation. Urodynamic pattern was evaluated in 01 study, with improvement of maximum cystometric capacity in the intervention group. About maximum voided volume, there was no improvement in 01 study, but in other, there was increase in the intervention group. Electrical nerve stimulation might promote improvement in partial and total response scores over the number of dry nights, with no improvement in urodynamic parameters, and could be considered as an feasible option in the management of refractory monosymptomatic primary enuresis. However, it is worth emphasizing the need to conduct more RCTs with a larger sample for better evaluation of the role of neurostimulation.
