Hello doctor,
My mother has cervical cancer and has had radiation therapy. Then metastasized to the kidney, 6 months to change the ureter. 1 year ago, the doctors decided not to put the tube because the tube could not be replaced, the tube could not be inserted, bleeding, pain.... One kidney has turned 3. My mother is currently in the hospital because of blocked blood sugar. urinating, 1 week ago blood in urine. The doctor gave infusion on one side, the other side pierced the urinary tract. Due to the epidemic, doctors did not come down to examine, only nurses performed and gave medicine. The doctor asked me, is it dangerous to urinate with blood for a long time? Is there any way to stop bleeding? Does my mother have to have a kidney removed?

Hello,
To the question "Is prolonged bleeding in urine dangerous?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your mother has cervical cancer, has had radiation therapy and has metastasized to the kidney ( Doctors thought it was metastases invading the two ureters causing hydronephrosis.) On one side of the left kidney, the kidney has dilated grade 3, such hematuria is very dangerous. The cause may be due to tumor invasion into the bladder, invasion, and ureter. Your mother needs to see a specialist as soon as possible to assess the condition of the disease as well as do tests to help diagnose and treat it in time.
Your mother has a grade 3 dilated left kidney, she may not have to have a nephrectomy but apply endoscopic methods to place a JJ tube from the ureter to the kidney, if that is not possible, a retrograde ureteral drainage can be placed or the kidney can be drained out. skin.
If you still have questions about blood in the urine, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
