Brief Summary: Only one study has evaluated the effect of TENS in LUTD in Parkinson's syndromes. It was reported at the congress of the "Société Interdisciplinaire Francophone d'UroDynamique et de Pelvi-Perinéologie" (SIFUD-PP) in 2011 by Ohanessian et al., and comprised 6 female patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) or multisystem atrophy (MSA), with overactive bladder. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, 20 minutes daily for 6 weeks, was associated with subjective improvement of LUTD assessed with the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) in 5 of the 6 patients.

In view of the encouraging results of this pilot study, we hypothesize that TENS treatment may improve LUTD in patients with a Parkinson's syndrome, Parkinson's disease (PD) and multisystem atrophy (MSA).
Detailed Description: The principal objective is to compare the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation of the posterior tibial nerve with placebo stimulation, applied 20 minutes daily for 3 months, in Lower Urinary Tract Disorders (LUTD) in patients with Parkinson's disease or multisystem atrophy, evaluated using the PGI-I (Patient Global Impression of improvement) tool.

The secondary objectives are to compare the efficacy of TENS with placebo stimulation on change before/after 3 months of treatment on:

* the intensity of urinary symptoms, evaluated using the Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) scale
* the number of voidings in 24 hours, number of episodes of urinary incontinence in 24 hours and maximum bladder capacity, evaluated by a voiding diary over 3 days
* urinary symptoms, evaluated with the urinary symptom profile (USP) questionnaire
* quality of life, assessed by the Qualiveen-SF® questionnaire
* post-void residual volume measured by bladder ultrasound and effect on the development of infectious complications, by comparing the number of urinary infections over 3 months in each group.

Lastly, the safety of TENS will be compared with that of placebo stimulation by the occurrence of adverse events during the 3 months of treatment.
