First Reported Case of Hyperchloremic Non-Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis in a Patient Undergoing Continuous Bladder Irrigation for Hemorrhagic Cystitis

Radiation cystitis can present as gross hematuria and occurs secondary to irritation of the bladder urothelium. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) is commonly used for the treatment of hemorrhagic cystitis for evacuation of blood clots and to maintain catheter drainage. Most commonly, CBI is perfor...

description Radiation cystitis can present as gross hematuria and occurs secondary to irritation of the bladder urothelium. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) is commonly used for the treatment of hemorrhagic cystitis for evacuation of blood clots and to maintain catheter drainage. Most commonly, CBI is performed using 0.9% sodium chloride. We report a 77-year-old female who developed hyperchloremic non-anion gap metabolic acidosis (H-NAGMA) and pulmonary edema secondary to absorption of 0.9% normal saline (NS) from CBI. In such cases, ringer lactate with low concentration (109 mEq) of chloride as compared to NS (154 mEq) can prove to be a suitable alternative.
