title: [Hemorrhagic cystitis in the course of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].
abstract: Sixty patients consisting of 56 cases with leukemia, 3 with lymphoma and 1 with neuroblastoma were treated with various kinds of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The conditioning regimen consisted of mainly cyclophosphamide (CTX) and total body irradiation (TBI) with the addition of 1-3 doses of other antitumor drugs e.g. cytarabine, daunomycin, etoposide, 6-MP etc. The overall incidence of hemorrhagic cystitis in the course of transplantation was 23.3% (14 out of 60 patients). The time of onset of hematuria in 6 of 14 patients was within 1-4 days following high-dose CTX during conditioning and in the remaining 8 cases occurred 10-30 days after transplantation. The duration of hematuria lasted 2-31 days (mean, 4 days). Thirteen patients recovered and one patient died from the complication.
