Rigid Versus Flexible Cystoscopy in Women in Outpatient Clinic
The study will help define the best tolerated approach to cystoscopy in women by randomly
comparing flexible to rigid cystoscopy. Previous randomized studies evaluated rigid
cystoscopy under general anesthesia versus flexible cystoscopy under local anesthesia. As a
result of these studies, flexible cystoscopy is performed in the clinic setting generally in
males. However, many women have rigid cystoscopy performed in the clinic while the men have
flexible cystoscopy. No studies to date have evaluated whether flexible cystoscopy is better
tolerated in women compared to rigid cystoscopy in women in the clinic setting.
