Abstract
Urology is not associated with many emergencies. Actually, one of the main advantages enjoyed by the senior urologist is that most of our surgery is elective, and unlike his or her fellow general surgeon, nights may be spent out of the operating room (OR) and in the warm bed. Most acute urological problems are managed in the emergency room (ER) with the help of other disciplines. I discuss here those common scenarios that a general surgeon may encounter, and solve, while the urologist slumbers.
