Acute retention of urine is a fairly common emergency problem in medical practice. Suprapubic diversion through a closed or open cystostomy is a standard procedure. In developing countries where there is paucity of skilled manpower and adequate facilities, patients' suffering may be unduly prolonged through delay. This simple cost-effective method was carried out in 15 patients without untoward morbidity. The procedure is particularly useful in rural communities where elaborate facilities are non-existent.
急性尿潴留是医疗实践中相当常见的急症问题。通过闭合或开放膀胱造瘘进行耻骨上引流是一种标准手术。在缺乏熟练人力和足够设施的发展中国家，患者的痛苦可能会因延误而过度延长。这种简单且经济有效的方法应用于15例患者，未出现不良并发症。该手术在没有完善设施的农村社区特别有用。
