Abstract

Massive bleeding of the urogenital tract is, in the same way as acute bleeding from all other organs, a medical emergency and necessitates precise diagnostics and treatment. In this article the topic is addressed in four main categories: first the inflammatory causes are discussed, followed by surgical, traumatic and neoplastic causes of massive bleeding. Subsequently, the rare but clinically relevant causes of acute and massive bleeding are described.

Keywords: Cystitis; Hematuria; Neoplasms; Trauma.
