出血性膀胱炎是血液肿瘤疾病患者的关键。与成人患者不同的是，治疗方式有限，一般情况较差的儿童往往不能很好地容忍侵入性手术。我们报告一位儿童难治性急性淋巴细胞性白血病患者，出现危及生命的大量肉眼血尿。伴随着由于造血抑制而每隔一天输注血小板，他的肉眼血尿和膀胱凝块滞留被日本传统医学(Kampo医学)的配方Choreito成功地治疗了。他在没有血尿的情况下存活了四个多月。Choreito耐受性良好，在整个疗程中没有观察到不良反应。(C)2012年爱思唯尔股份有限公司。版权所有。
Hemorrhagic cystitis is critical in patients with hemato-oncological disorders. Unlike adult patients, there are limited modalities and invasive procedures are often not well tolerated in children with poor general conditions. We report a pediatric patient with refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia who developed life-threatening massive gross hematuria. Along with platelet infusion every other day due to suppressed hematopoiesis, his gross hematuria and clot retention in the bladder were successfully treated with choreito, a formula from Japanese traditional medicine (Kampo medicine). He survived free from hematuria for more than four months. Choreito was well tolerated, and no adverse effects were observed throughout the course. (C) 2012 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
