Abstract
White light cystoscopy is the current standard of care for bladder cancer detection and surveillance. If a patient is found to have non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer, they will undergo multiple outpatient cystoscopies. In addition to anesthetizing lubricating gel, there are a number of other modalities to make the procedure more tolerable. Prior to the procedure, most patients will not require antibiotic prophylaxis. Regarding tumor resection and surveillance, data support the use of enhanced cystoscopic modalities, like blue light cystoscopy and narrow-band imaging, to diagnose carcinoma in situ and papillary lesions with more accuracy and facilitate more complete resection of bladder tumors. AUA/SUO guidelines reflect confidence in this data by making moderate and conditional recommendations for the use of blue light cystoscopy and narrow-band imaging, respectively. Future directions for enhanced cystoscopy include more prospective, randomized trials evaluating cancer-specific survival and the use of Cysview as a cytotoxic treatment modality.
