In medicine, urinary retention is "inability to empty the urinary bladder with voiding (urination).[1]

In males, antimuscarinic cholinergic antagonists may contribute to retention.[2]

Treatment

Postoperative urinary retention may be better treated with intermittent urinary catheterization rather than indwelling urinary catheterization.[3]
