Urotherapy for tear production with painless urination.

We report a rare case of a 4-year-old girl with involuntary watering of eyes and facial redness during painless voiding since early infancy. Here, we describe her response to urotherapy with improvement of involuntary tearing during micturition, which although neither life threatening nor debilitating, may be quite bothersome for children and their parents, leading to anxiety, emotional burden, or embarrassment. We hypothesize that the lacrimal glands and the bladder and bowel have common central nervous system pathways and that bladder retraining and bowel management might be a potential treatment for this rare condition.
