Goal: To study the epidemiological, clinical, etiological, characteristics and ensure earlier management of complete acute urine retention (CAUR) in the urology department of N'Djamena in Chad. Patient and Method: It was a retrospective descriptive study of a sample of 606 patients during the period ranging from November 2008 to December 2010. The patients were consulted first in urology or referred by a colleague for a CAUR. The diagnosis was confirmed by an earlier clinical examination. The patients have benefited from a urine evacuation before looking for the etiologies. Results: We managed a sample of 606 patients suffering from CAUR. Average age was 60 years old with extremes of 1 month and 100 years. There were more patients in the ranks of 60 years and more (n = 436; 71.94%). Men were more than women in the proportion of 583/25, and 63.20% of the patients lived In N'Djamena. The benign prostatic hypertrophia was the first cause of CAUR, followed by urethral stricture, urinary infection, lithiasis of the lower urinary tract, adenocarcinoma of the bladder, hymen imperforation in young girls, bilharzias, paraphimosis and ovenbird necrosis. The bladder catheterization was the most urgent gesture done in 61.71%, followed by open cystostomy. In the second case, etiological treatment was done as: open prostatic surgery (n = 306), urethral reconstitution (n = 58), cystololithotomia (n = 54), dilatation of urethral conduct (n = 54), hymenostomia (n = 6). Conclusion: CAUR was the first symptom which motivated the consultation in the department of urology in N'Djamena the main problem of public health in Chad.How to cite this paper: Rimtebaye, K.,
