title: [Calculous anuria. Apropos of 63 cases].
abstract: Sixty-three cases of anuria secondary to renal stones were treated in the Sfax urology department between 1982 and 1990. The presenting symptoms are frequently polymorphic and non-specific. The prognosis of these patients largely depends on the infectious complications associated with anuria, the delay in management and, most importantly, the course of preexisting renal failure. Fifteen deaths (24%) were observed in this series, despite emergency urinary diversion and appropriate treatment to eliminate the obstruction.
