Case report: Successful treatment of hyperbaric oxygen for radiation-induced hemorrhagic cystitis in a 95-year-old patient with bladder cancer
This case represents the first documented instance of successful hematuria resolution in a patient over 90 years of age with severe RHC. The positive therapeutic outcome achieved with personal protocol (1.4-1.6 ATA) in this 95-year-old patient, expands hyperbaric oxygen pressure options for elderly patients. Moreover, it also records a comprehensive dataset, including the time of the patient's recurrence of hematuria and the subsequent trend of hematuria control, which contributes valuable evidence to the research on HBOT for the repair of bladder mucosal tissue.
