[New hemostatic therapy of bleeding of bladder by technique of drip-irrigation using a thrombin solution].

To control the bleeding from the bladder caused by radiation cystitis or transurethral surgery, drip-irrigation of bladder by indwelling a three-way Foley catheter using a thrombin solution, as a clotting agent, was done in 10 patients. Five hundreds ml of solution containing 25,000 units of thrombin was dripped out within 3 hours and repeated 2 times a day for 2 to 7 days. The results were excellent in 2 cases, good in 6 cases and poor in 2 cases. No remarkable side effects were observed.
