    Author: Korányi E, Zágh I, Kottász S, Kendelényi E.
    Journal: Acta Chir Acad Sci Hung; 1982; 23(4):229-34. PubMed ID: 6892257.
    Abstract:
    In 37 of the 258 patients with pelvic fractures rather severe urological complications were diagnosed. It seems that the majority of polytraumatized patients can be considered as potential urologic cases. The characteristic urological complications associated with the various types of fractures are described. The importance of urgent urological examination is stressed in order to detect urological injuries requiring acute care and to determine the need for operation or for conservative treatment. Co-operation between the traumatologist, the urologist and the radiologist will ensure the definitive care of the polytraumatized patient and the best chances for recovery.
