AB  - <p style="text-align:justify">The majority of urological admissions are emergency patients, with a significant percentage being urologist emergency referral cases. There have been few research on this topic, although there are regional variances in the presentation of urological crises. As a result, this research examined a variety of urological emergency presentations and associated therapies. To estimate the percentage of urological crises and analyze the various types of urological emergencies with the necessary treatment. A total of 11,139 patients were admitted to the urology department, with a considerable number (21.05%) coming via the emergency room. The Department of emergency Medicine accounted for the majority of cross references (22.59%). Renal colic (24.2%) was the most prevalent presentation in the emergency department, followed by acute urine retention (14.7%). Hematuria was the most common presentation in referred patients, accounting for 17.75%, followed by traumatic catheterization (11.97%). The most prevalent urological intervention in referred patients was suprapubic catheterization (27.20%), but in directly admitted cases, Urological crises account for a large fraction of all urology admissions (27.18%). In our analysis, renal colic was the most prevalent non‐traumatic damage, followed by traumatic catheterization. Percutaneous nephrostomy was the most prevalent surgical technique in direct admitted emergency patients, whereas suprapubic catheterization was used in intrahospital emergency referral cases.</p>
