Descripción: La paruresis denominada síndrome de vejiga tímida o incapacidad situacional para orinar se define como la incapacidad de iniciar o mantener la micción en presencia de personas debido al miedo al escrutinio; los diferentes grados de severidad y el hecho de que sea un padecimiento que no pone en riesgo la vida, genera que sea subdiagnosticada y poco estudiada, ocasionando en el paciente un considerable deterioro interpersonal, social y repercusión en su calidad de vida.
Relevancia: Existe poca investigación respecto a este padecimiento ya que presenta una gran variabilidad de síntomas. Es debido a su probabilidad de abordaje y diagnóstico inicial en la consulta urológica que se decidió realizar una revisión narrativa para caracterizar el estado actual del arte.
Conclusiones: La paruresis es un trastorno médico complejo, la falta de concientización entre las diversas especialidades contribuye a los escasos resultados en el tratamiento, solo la educación, investigación y su abordaje multidisciplinar permitirá avanzar en su comprensión.
