  • Title: Radioisotope investigation of continuous bladder irrigation after transurethral resection.
    Author: Frohmuller HG, Ackermann R.
    Journal: J Urol; 1976 Nov; 116(5):601-2. PubMed ID: 62061.
    Abstract:
    Radioisotope studies using 131I serum albumin were performed on 20 patients to investigate the possibility of intravascular absorption of the irrigating solution during continuous bladder irrigation after transurethral resection of the prostate. In only 5 of 20 patients was a minimal absorption of 1 to 34 cc observed. On the basis of these studies the routine use of continuous bladder irrigation after transurethral resection can be recommended, provided techniques are sterile.
