    Journal: Ann Saudi Med; 1994 Jan; 14(1):42-4. PubMed ID: 17589053.
    Abstract:
    We report the successful use of prostaglandin F2 alpha continous bladder irrigation in two patients for the treatment of intractable cyclophosphamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis which was resistant to conventional therapy in two patients. A 0.7 mg% solution of prostaglandin F2 alpha was used for continuous bladder irrigation at a rate of 150 to 200 cc/hr for four days. The response was complete in both patients and no side effects were noted.
