Similar to acute cases in other branches of medicine acute urology cases pose a danger to organs or even to the life of the patient. The

most frequently acute paediatric urological emergencies are: the testicular torsion, paraphimosis, renal colic and haematuria. All the

introduced acute cases require fast diagnosis and urgent care. A wrong diagnosis and treatment result in loss of the affected organ or

a permanent damage of patient’s health.

Keywords: acute, torsion, paraphimosis, renal colic, haematuria
