AB  - With attention to the fact that after anterior colporrhaphy surgery and stitches on vaginal mucus, inserting urinary catheter is requested, according to scientific references and in order to prevent from urinary retention, it has been said that the catheter should be inserted for 3 day. But inserting the catheter leads to infections of bladder and pain. So, in present study, we compared the removal of the catheter 24 versus 72 h after the surgery, considering urinary infections, urinary retention, patient’s ease and hospitalization. Within two groups of 70 patients which has been assimilated based on basic factors) devided in to two groups accidently with excel table) urinary catheter fixed for 1 and 3 day. After that, patients were compared considering urinary retention, urinary infections and the rate of patient’s satisfaction. Urinary retention was 28.6% in the test group and 22.9% in controlling group which was not statistically meaningfull (p = 0.78). Urinary infections was 22.9% in the test group and 34.3% in controlling group (p = 0.42) and the rate of patient’s satisfactions was 57.1% in the test group and 40% in controlling group (p = 0.23). The hospitalization period in test group and in control group was 2.91±0.61 and 3.94± 0.59 day, respectively with a significant difference (p = 0.001). The results showed that short time catheterizations is more satisfactory in comparison long catheterizations.
