    Abstract

    Postpartum urinary retention occurs among 0.1-14.1% women after they have given birth. Different conditions during pregnancy and childbirth predispose to the condition, which may impair bladder emptying and cause late urological complications. Based on a review of literature published during the period 1980-2008, we propose an algorithm for management of postpartum urinary retention.
