Electrostimulation of the anterior sacral nerve roots in patients with spinal injuries according to the technique described by G. S. Brindley was the subject of an International conference held in Le Mans on 24th and 25th November, 1989. The equipment is now perfectly reliable and the technique has been well defined. Section of the posterior nerve roots increases bladder capacity and promotes continence. Stimulation of the anterior nerve roots contributes to correct bladder emptying. Two other benefits can be expected: improved defecation and erection. Complications are uncommon, but this technique must be reserved for failures of rehabilitation and uroneuropharmacoloical techniques.
1989年11月24日至25日在勒芒召开的一次国际会议的主题是，按照G. S. 布林德利所描述的技术，对脊髓损伤患者的骶前神经根进行电刺激。目前该设备完全可靠，技术也已明确。切断后神经根可增加膀胱容量并促进节制排尿。刺激前神经根有助于膀胱正确排空。还可预期另外两个益处：改善排便和勃起功能。并发症并不常见，但该技术必须仅用于康复治疗和尿神经药理学技术失败的情况。
