Abstract

Post-obstructive diuresis (POD) is a specific entity which may occur post catheterization and is a rare but potentially lifethreatening condition if not recognized and managed appropriately. However, prolonged bilateral ureteral obstruction (BUO) can cause severe structural and functional tubular damage. Complications that may arise: volume depletion, hyponatremia/ hypernatremia, hypokalemia, hypomagnesaemia, metabolic acidosis, hypovolemic shock and death
