About Cystoscopy Clot Evacuation

Cystoscopy clot evacuation is a specialized urological procedure performed to remove blood clots from the bladder. A urologist inserts a thin, flexible tube called a cystoscope through the urethra to visualize the bladder's interior. Using specialized instruments passed through the cystoscope, the doctor locates, breaks up, and flushes out the obstructing blood clots. This procedure is crucial for restoring normal urine flow, relieving pain and discomfort, and preventing complications like urinary retention or infection. It is typically performed under local, spinal, or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's condition and clot burden. Cystoscopy clot evacuation is both diagnostic and therapeutic, allowing the urologist to identify and address the underlying cause of the bleeding, such as a bladder tumor or enlarged prostate.

Key Highlights

Who is this surgery for?

  • Acute urinary retention due to blood clots (clot retention).
  • Persistent and heavy hematuria (blood in urine) not resolving with conservative management.
  • To clear the bladder prior to other diagnostic or therapeutic procedures for the underlying cause.
  • To relieve symptoms of bladder distension, such as severe lower abdominal pain and pressure.
  • As an emergency intervention to prevent upper urinary tract damage or urosepsis.

How to prepare

  • Complete medical history review and physical examination by the urologist.
  • Pre-operative tests may include blood tests, urine analysis, and imaging (like ultrasound or CT scan).
  • Discussion of anesthesia options (local, spinal, or general) and associated risks.
  • Informed consent process detailing the procedure, benefits, and potential risks.
  • Fasting for several hours before the procedure if general or spinal anesthesia is planned.

  • Common: Discomfort or burning sensation during urination, temporary blood-tinged urine.
  • Infection of the urinary tract (UTI).
