Report about the employment of a sterile 35% barium sulphate (Falibaryt)-suspension for cystography in course of preoperative examination for correction of urinary stress incontinence. The Falibaryt-suspension was found to be an eminently suitable, harmless and cheap medium in 928 examinations. In one case the authors observed a unilateral vesico-renal reflux. By osmodiuresis with intravenous infusion of 200 ml mannitol 15% the contrast medium was removed out of the ureter and kidney's pelvic in a short time. The authors give references to make provision for retrograde instillation of barium sulphate suspensions. By consideration of these provisions the use of barium sulphate (Falibaryt)-suspension is harmless and recommended.
