Question:

How is hemorrhagic cystitis?

Author: H K



Answer:

Most common GH LUT. Intractable hematuria localizing to the bladder chemotherapeutic agents have been linked to the development of hemorrhagic cystitis through exposure of the metabolite acrolein to the urothelium. • Alum may be used as a first-line intravesical therapy for hemorrhagic cystitis in patients without renal dysfunction. • Formalin is a highly effective form of intravesical therapy for hemorrhagic cystitis. A cystogram should be obtained before therapy to ensure no vesicoureteral reflux. • HBO2 ( hyperbaric Oxygen)has been associated with response rates of 80% to 100% for patients with hemorrhagic cystitis.
