Context: The RNA virus can detect in different tissues such as the urinary tract, finding evidence that in patients infected with COVID-19 the virus is detected in toilets and sinks. Objectives: To determine if detection of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA is possible in the urine sample of patients infected with COVID-19. Material and methods: A non-systematic narrative review of the evidence collected in the published literature of these last six months of 2020 was carried out. A search was carried out in Pubmed, NCBI and NEJM. Inclusion criteria: Includes articles published until June 2020 written in English. Exclusion criteria: Non-relevant studies with the subject or articles with serious flaws in their design were excluded. Evidence Acquisition: This article summarizes the content and conclusions of the different scientific studies such as Meta-analysis, Letter to the Editor, Case Series, Cohort and Case Report. Summary of the evidence: The main route of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is respiration, however; It is necessary to carry out studies on urine samples and this virus can be excreted in the urinary tract. Conclusions: According to the articles reviewed, it is possible to excrete the virus through the urinary tract, since according to the literature there are receptors for the virus mentioned in the kidney and bladder. Although the evidence reviewed is not conclusive, we have to recognize that the viral RNA of SARSCOV-2 in urine, under conditions not yet known, in comparison with viral RNA of the same in respiratory secretion, is much lower but is still detected.
