[Metabolic acidosis in a patient with an orthotopic neobladder]
Abstract:
We present a case of 62-year-old patient after cystectomy with intestinal neobladder due to bladder cancer, complicated by severe acid-balance disturbances. Due to poor clinical condition and metabolic acidosis patient temporarily required renal replacement therapy. After obtaining the stabile clinical status the patient was discharged with the recommendation of chronic oral treatment with the alkalizing agents and regular blood gas control. In the 6 month follow-up there were neither symptoms of uremia nor significant abnormalities in waterelectrolyte balance.

Diagnosing Acidosis and Alkalosis
First, the pH level is assessed to determine whether the blood pH is normal (7.35–7.45), low (acidosis), or high (alkalosis).
Next, the PCO2 and...

Carbohydrate Metabolism
Starch accounts for approximately 60% of the carbohydrates consumed by humans. Since amylase enzymes cannot function in the stomach's acidic environment, starch can only be digested in the mouth and small intestine. Simple sugars are found naturally in milk and fruits in...
