[Treatment of acute radiation cystitis with preparations of immobilized trypsin]

At present the problem of bladder injuries and methods of their therapy are very urgent in view of a wide use of radiation therapy of cancer of the uterine body, bladder and rectum. None of the existing methods of therapy of local radiation cystitis is sufficiently effective. To obtain better therapeutic results and immobilized trypsin preparation on a powder-like cellulose matrix was used. Therapy was provided to 34 patients with symptoms of acute radiation cystitis. The therapy in all the cases proved to be effective. It was confirmed by the disappearance of clinical symptoms and cystoscopic findings.
