title: [Surgical problems following irradiation therapy: urology (author's transl)].
abstract: Late complications involving the bladder and ureter occasionally occur following irradiation to the minor pelvis. Intermittent light bleeding from the bladder can be contained by nonspecific installation therapy. With life-threatening hemorrhage, silver nitrate or formalin instillation is effective. The treatment of irradiation ulcers, irradiation contracted bladder, vesicovaginal fistulae, and late irradiation reactions of the ureter are discussed in incurable bladder contractions and vesicovaginal fistulae, a supravesicle urinary diversion is necessary.
