Sacral neuromodulation is an approved treatment for overactive bladder and non-obstructive retention since the nineties of the last century. This article highlights the neuromodulation system, the indications for use, and the working mechanism, on the basis of current insights and recent publications. In addition, the new developments regarding surgery technique, surgical policy and the technical aspects of the system are being discussed.
