“…Radiotherapy and TURP are the most common procedures used. Other treatment options include intravesical fibrin-glue instillation, laser coagulation, percutaneous nephrostomy tube insertion, internal iliac artery embolization, surgical diversion and cystectomy [Choong et al 2000].…”

“…However, the accumulated experience is based on a limited number of patients. 15 Intravesical 1% alumin irrigation represents an effective and a rather well-tolerated treatment for patients with HC associated with bladder carcinoma and irradiation.

“…It acts as an astringent at the site of bleeding, causing a protein precipitation at the urothelial surface which leads to decreased capillary permeability, contraction of intercellular space, vasoconstriction and reduction in oedema and inflammation. It can result in formation of precipitant which may further block the catheter and can be avoided by increasing the flow rate (Choong et al, 2000). Kennedy et al prepared 1% solution of alum by dissolving 400 grams of potash of alum (McCarthy's) in 4 L of hot sterile water and 300 ml of this solution was added to 3 L of sterile normal saline through a sterilising filter to form irrigating alum solution (Kennedy et al, 1984).…”

“…Kavoussi LR has reported sever renal impairment, encephalopathy, metabolic acidosis and coagulopathy while receiving continuous intra-vesical alum irrigation for severe urinary haemorrhage (Kavoussi et al, 1986). Death has also been reported in extreme cases after continuous intra-vesical alum irrigation (Choong et al, 2000). Although alum irrigation is a safe, easy and low cost procedure, severe aluminium toxicity may occur in patients with renal impairment.…”
