- Abstract
During 18 months 38 patients with anuria due to lithiasis were admitted in our department, 8 of them developed septic shock. Twenty eight patients were cured using different procedures and were released from the hospital with normal urinary output. Ten patients died, 6 of them from septic shock, which has a high mortality rate. Emergency restoration of urinary flow, correction of fluid and electrolyte imbalance, massive antibiotherapy may improve results.
