Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Bien que l'anurie soit, dans son sens littéral, l'absence d'urine, le terme est communément utilisé pour désigner tous les cas où le volume d'urine, sans être nul, est négligeable : entre 0 et 100 ml par 24 heures. [...] le terme d'anurie ne concerne que les cas où la formation d'urine est suspendue, et non ceux où l'urine parvient à la vessie mais ne peut être excrétée au-dehors (rétention d'urines). 3, record 1, French, - anurie
