Conclusion
Consequently, the findings of our study showed that there were no differences between the effects of rigid and flexible cystoscopies on pain, sexual function, LUTS and quality of life in patients with NMIBC. Also cystoscopy did not influence the quality of life, sexual function, and LUTS of patients independently of cystoscope type. We suggest that cystoscopy may be performed easily using both rigid and flexible instruments in follow-up of patients with NMIBC as an outpatient procedure.
