Flexible cystoscopy is a diagnostic procedure usually performed under local anesthesia and has been used in the outpatient setting since the 1980s.
We performed an electronic search of MEDLINE(®) and the Cochrane Central Search Library between 1990 and 2010. Duplicate references were removed. One reviewer extracted the publications relevant to general clinical practice.
MEDLINE search using the MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) words "flexible" and "cystoscopy" revealed 274 titles, and there were 42 titles in the Cochrane Central Search Library. However, interestingly, only 13 published papers addressing the clinical practice of flexible cystoscopy in the English literature were identified.
Flexible cystoscopy is a real revolution in the field of diagnostic urology.
软性膀胱镜检查是一种诊断程序,通常在局部麻醉下进行,自 20 世纪 80 年代以来已在门诊环境中使用。
我们在 1990 年至 2010 年间对 MEDLINE(®)和 Cochrane 中央搜索库进行了电子搜索。删除重复的参考文献。一位审阅者提取了与一般临床实践相关的出版物。
使用 MeSH(医学主题词)词“flexible”和“cystoscopy”进行 MEDLINE 搜索显示出 274 个标题,而 Cochrane 中央搜索库中有 42 个标题。然而,有趣的是,仅在英文文献中发现了 13 篇关于软性膀胱镜检查临床实践的已发表论文。
软性膀胱镜检查是诊断泌尿科领域的一场真正的革命。
