Endoscopic topical placement of formalin soaked pledgets to control localized hemorrhage due to radiation cystitis.
Journal of Urology 1997 August
PURPOSE: A useful technique for treating localized bladder hemorrhage secondary to radiation cystitis is described.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cotton pledgets soaked in 5% formalin are placed endoscopically onto bleeding foci of the bladder for 15 minutes and then removed.
RESULTS: There was immediate cessation of prolonged bleeding refractory to intravesical saline, alum, prostaglandin E1 and estrogen. No subsequent bleeding was noted during 16 months of followup.
CONCLUSIONS: Topical application of formalin soaked pledgets is an effective method of controlling localized bleeding secondary to radiation cystitis.
