[Therapy of acute radiation cystitis. A case report]

We report a patient with prostate cancer who suffered from severe radiation cystitis after combined interstitial radiation with 125-Iodine-Seeds and external radiation (2000 rad). This patient was treated very successfully with intramural injection of Orgotein (Peroxinorm) into the bladder wall. Besides discussion of the aetiology of radiation cystitis we report our first favourable results with local and systemic treatment with Orgotein (Peroxinorm).
