To investigate whether catheterization remains necessary in non-drainage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using combined spinal epidural anesthesia (CSEA) with a short-acting opioid by comparing (1) incidences of postoperative urinary retention (POUR), and (2) postoperative clinical outcomes between retained urinary catheter (UC) and non-retained urinary catheter (non-UC) groups. A total of 230 patients underwent non-drainage TKA using CSEA with fentanyl were randomized into UC and non-UC groups (115 patients each, 115 knees each). Incidences of POUR, clinical
