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

    Minimally invasive procedure performed through the natural urinary opening.Provides immediate relief from urinary obstruction and pain.Allows for direct visualization of the bladder to identify the source of bleeding.Can be both diagnostic and therapeutic in a single session.Typically has a shorter recovery time compared to open surgical procedures.Helps prevent serious complications like kidney damage from prolonged urinary retention./ul

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.
  • Temporary discontinuation of blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, warfarin) as advised by the doctor.

Risks & possible complications

  • Common: Discomfort or burning sensation during urination, temporary blood-tinged urine.
  • Infection of the urinary tract (UTI).
  • Injury to the urethra or bladder wall, potentially causing perforation.
  • Failure to completely evacuate all clots, requiring a repeat procedure.
  • Re-accumulation of clots if the underlying bleeding source is not controlled.

PATIENT REVIEW

Karan Bhatia, a 58-year-old accountant and...

Karan Bhatia, a 58-year-old accountant and father of two, had a history of an enlarged prostate. For three days, he experienced agonizing pain and an inability to urinate, passing only small amounts of dark, bloody urine. A visit to the Emergency Department revealed a large blood clot completely blocking his bladder. The urologist, Dr. Sharma, explained that a cystoscopy with clot evacuation was urgently needed to relieve the blockage, stop the bleeding, and prevent kidney damage. Under spinal anesthesia, Karan felt pressure but no pain as Dr. Sharma used a thin scope to flush out the clots and cauterize a bleeding vessel on his prostate. After the procedure, with a catheter in place, his urine immediately cleared. The catheter was removed after 24 hours, and he could urinate freely again, though with some initial burning. Emotionally, Karan went from sheer panic and fear of permanent damage to profound relief and gratitude. He felt a renewed appreciation for his health and closely followed up on managing his prostate condition.
