What is Cystoscopy?

Cystoscopy involves the insertion of a cystoscope through the urethra into the bladder. The cystoscope enables the doctor to view the interior lining of the bladder and urethra on a monitor, allowing for the detection of abnormalities, such as tumours, stones, inflammation, or infections. 

There are two main types of cystoscopy

Two Main Types Of Cystoscopy

Flexible Cystoscopy

Flexible Cystoscopy

This procedure uses a thin, flexible cystoscope that is easier to manoeuvre and is often performed in an outpatient setting. It is typically used for diagnostic purposes and minor treatments.

Rigid Cystoscopy

Rigid Cystoscopy

A rigid cystoscope is used for more complex procedures and can accommodate various surgical instruments. This type of cystoscopy may be performed in a hospital setting and is often used for therapeutic interventions.

Preparing for Cystoscopy

At TAH Global Healthcare, we take every precaution to minimise these risks by employing the latest surgical techniques and providing personalised care for each patient.

Risks and Complications

  • Infection

    There is a risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) following cystoscopy. Antibiotics may be prescribed as a preventive measure.

  • Bleeding

    Some bleeding from the urethra or bladder is common, but excessive bleeding should be reported to a healthcare provider.

  • Urinary Retention

    In rare cases, patients may experience difficulty urinating after the procedure, which may require further evaluation.

  • Perforation

    Although extremely rare, there is a risk of injury to the bladder or urethra during the procedure.

The Cystoscopy Procedure

Anesthesia

Anesthesia

Cystoscopy can be performed under local anaesthesia (to numb the urethra) or sedation, depending on the patient’s comfort level and the complexity of the procedure.

Positioning

Positioning

The patient is positioned comfortably on an examination table, usually lying on their back with their legs placed in stirrups.

Insertion of the Cystoscope

Insertion of the Cystoscope

The healthcare provider gently inserts the cystoscope through the urethra into the bladder. A sterile saline solution is often used to fill the bladder, providing a clearer view.

Visual Examination

Visual Examination

The doctor examines the bladder lining and urethra using the camera on the cystoscope. The findings are viewed on a monitor in real-time.

Biopsy or Treatment (if needed)

Biopsy or Treatment (if needed)

If abnormalities are detected, the doctor may perform a biopsy or other therapeutic procedures using instruments passed through the cystoscope.

Completion and Removal

Completion and Removal

Once the examination and any necessary procedures are completed, the cystoscope is carefully removed, and the patient is taken to the recovery area.

Long-Term Care and Follow-Up

Long-term care and follow-up are important after undergoing cystoscopy, as patients may need additional appointments to discuss results and explore further treatment options if necessary. Key aspects of this care include regular check-ups, which help monitor for any recurring issues based on the initial reason for the procedure.

Patients are also advised to remain attentive to any new or worsening symptoms, reporting these promptly to their healthcare provider. Maintaining a healthy diet and staying well-hydrated can support urinary tract health and reduce the risk of complications.
