Acute Urinary Retention in the First-trimester of Pregnancy: A Case Report

Abstract

Acute urinary retention (AUR) is a rare occurrence during pregnancy. If not dealt with in time, it can lead to bladder rupture, miscarriage, or even uterine rupture and other serious consequences that endanger the health of both mother and fetus. Many risk factors have been identified. To better understand the etiology and treatment of urinary retention during pregnancy, we report on one pregnant woman with AUR who presented at 11+1 weeks of gestation due to uterus retroversion.
