Outcomes of haematuria referrals: two-year data from a single large university hospital in Denmark.

CONCLUSIONS: The new Danish referral pathway has an acceptable capture rate for patients presenting with haematuria of all severities. The overall cancer detection rate of 14.5%, and 23% for patients with VH in this study, is an important validation of previous studies. A cancer detection rate of greater than 30% was shown in patients with VH over 70 years old. PMID: 28406341 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
