Abstract

Patients with diabetes mellitus, UTI, dysuria, and antibiotics use in the past one month were excluded. Flexible cystoscopy was performed under local anesthesia. During follow-up visits, anyone who develops symptoms associated with UTI (Fever, dysuria, frequency, and incontinence) was asked to provide a midstream urine sample (MSU) in the same visit.
Result: Age range of patients was from 18 to 60 years (mean 43.31±8.56). UTI following flexible cystoscopy develpoed in 27 (14.21%) patients.
Conclusion: The frequency of UTI following flexible cystoscopy was quite high.

Key words: Flexible cystoscopy, hematuria, urinary tract infection.
