Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - National Institute of Laser Enhanced Science - Department of Laser Applications in Medical and Biological Summary: Objective : was to compare the effect of using different modalities as laser acupuncture and medication for the treatment of patients with resistant mono-symptomatic nocturnal enuresis and evaluation of urodynamic parameter after treatment. Patients and methods: A randomized controlled study included45 children ranged from 5 to 15 years presenting with persistent monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE). They were randomized into three equal groups: group A, managed with desmopressin acetate; group B, managed with laser acupuncture; and group C, managed with a combination of laser acupuncture and desmopressin, all groups received behavioral therapy. The children were evaluated before and after3 months of the study to record the efficacy of therapy, side-effects and bladder capacity, then re-evaluated after 6 months by bladder diary. Results: A statistically significant higher cure rate was reported in group B patients (73.3%) while in groups A and C improvement was reported in 20.0% and 13.3% respectively (p.value = 0.002). Conclusion: Laser acupuncture is non-invasive, painless with no side effects and lower recurrence rate can be considered as an alternative therapy for patients with MNE
