The evaluation of microscopic hematuria: a population-based study.
From 1979 until 1983, 2,005 men underwent routine urological examinations. Of these men 85 (4 per cent) had asymptomatic microscopic hematuria. All men underwent complete urological evaluation. Significant urological disease was detected in 22 per cent of the patients. Therefore, complete urological evaluation can be justified in a nonselected group of men with microscopic hematuria.
