Female urinary retention is rarely caused by an unknown condition. In such a case, common causes including neurogenic, anatomical, traumatic and iatrogenic voiding dysfunction are excluded. Both the radiological and histological findings specific to the condition remain unclear. We herein report a
We report a previously well 14-year-old male who developed left-sided hemiconvulsion, urinary retention and hemiplegia 1 months after varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection. Brain T2-weighted MRI showed hyperintensity in medial fronto-parietal area including cyngulate gyrus, foot division of the
Contact dermatitis of the external genitalia is added to the list of entities that can cause urinary retention with hydroureteronephrosis in a child. The urinary tract returned to normal following successful treatment of the acute penile edema with topical and systemic steroids.
Retroperitoneal pelvic lymphoceles are one of the most common complications following renal transplantation, and usually present with a palpable mass, ipsilateral leg edema, hydronephrosis caused by ureteral obstruction, decreased renal function and cutaneous lymphatic fistula. However, lymphocele
Acute urinary retention secondary to vasculitic penile swelling in children is extremely rare. Henoch-Schönlein purpura is a self-limiting IgA-mediated cutaneous vasculitis, which can cause soft tissue edema. Acute urinary retention requires urgent intervention to prevent obstructive uropathy.
OBJECTIVE
The efficacy and safety of a new biodegradable (self-reinforced polyglycolic acid) spiral stent in securing free voiding despite edema after visual laser ablation of the prostate were studied.
METHODS
A biodegradable spiral stent was inserted into the prostatic urethra in 22 patients
A 56-year-old woman was referred to our hospital presenting with urinary retention. Ultrasonography revealed bilateral hydronephrosis and magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis showed diffuse thickening of the bladder wall. The hydronephrosis was improved by urethral balloon catheter. A
OBJECTIVE

RESULTS
A 72-year-old male patient with a history of bilateral inguinal hernia and a recent hip surgery, presented with deep venous thrombosis in the left leg. A CT scan disclosed significant
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the incidence and factors predictive of acute urinary retention (AUR) in 805 consecutive patients treated with prostate brachytherapy monotherapy and to examine the possible effect of a learning curve.
METHODS
Between July 1998 and November 2002, 805 patients were treated with
