Abstract
- Intravesical Alum irrigation is the safest and most effective method of treatment for intractable hematuria. Continuous vesical irrigation with 1 percent Alum solution was performed without anesthesia in 20 patients in whom massive bladder hemorrhage persisted despite of evacuation of clots and normal saline irrigation for at least 24 hours. Hematuria ceased in 18 patients and side effect was not observed. We have found this technique to be simple, efficient, nontoxic and less expensive than Previously reported methods.
