Urethro-cystoscopy
Examination preparation and conduction
The patient is lying on the examination table in a supine position, the legs rest on the leg supports. The examination may go either under local anesthesia or anaesthetization. We disinfect the urethral opening and its area. Then we prepare the urethra for the insertion of the cystoscope using a lubricating gel containing analgesics and injected into the urethra. We proceed with the device inserted into the urethra, scanning the urethra, the prostate and then, getting into the bladder, the inner surface of the bladder and the inlets of the kidney tubules. In order to ensure the field of view, we introduce sterile filtered water or a saline solution into the bladder through the device used for the examination.
The intervention can establish the roominess of the bladder, the abnormal deviations of the mucous membrane, tumors, stones, foreign bodies, stenosis, lesions of the urethra wall, functionality of the sphincter, the length, size of the prostate, and the condition of the bladder neck. We scan the inside of the urinary bladder and the condition of the mucous membrane, the inlets of the urinary tracts. Here we can see the urinary actions and the abnormal lesions of the urinary bladder: (inflammation, stone, tumor, foreign matter, any sources of bleeding, etc.)
Determination and confirmation or exclusion of the disease, diagnosis, judgment and control of the current status of previously treated bladder disease. The procedure allows for the planning of the subsequent treatment and tissue samples may also be taken in order to establish a biopsy-based diagnosis.
