Acute Urinary Retention In Men: An Age Old Problem
Acute Urinary Retention In Men: An Age Old Problem
Ten years ago Emberton and Anson wrote in the BMJ about acute urinary retention and its prevalence in aging men. Their writings have relevance today. With the advance of the Boomer generation, patients presenting in AUR continue to challenge urologists. Read Emberton's summary of AUR related published articles, 1966 to 1998. And note his concluding comments about future instruments, i.e. stents, which will relieve AUR while allowing the bladder and external sphincter to work normally.
