ObjectiveTo determine the ability of sphincter electromyography (EMG) and post-void residual urine volume (PVR) during a free-flow study and a pressure-flow study (PFS) for distinguishing multiple system atrophy (MSA) from Parkinson's disease (PD).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 241 case records; both urodynamic study and sphincter EMG were performed in patients with MSA (n = 147) and PD (n = 94).ResultsThere was a statistically significant difference (p ConclusionsThe present results suggested that PVR was more appropriate than sphincter EMG for differentiating MSA from PD.
