    Abstract:
    In a retrospective analysis postoperative courses of 879 patients (1987-1989) have been analysed with respect to micturition behaviour and incidence of postoperative urinary tract infections. 58.5 per cent urinary tracts infections could be registered following uro-gynecology operations and 48.9 per cent after radical hysterectomies according to Wertheim-Held. The lowest rate of 15.9 per cent we found after simple interventions at the adnexas. Within the uro-gynecological operations vaginal plastic procedures had a higher rate (66.4 per cent) than colposuspensions with 41.5 per cent. Because of the different extent of the bladder preparation there were distinct differences with regard to first spontaneous micturition and lack of residual urine.
