[Intra- and postoperative complications classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification in patients >  80 years after transurethral resection of the urinary bladder].

Prolonged macrohaematuria and a high transfusion rate are attributable to the high percentage of orally anticoagulated patients. PMID: 29518819 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
