Abstract:
Objective To evaluate transurethral fulguration with intravesical instillation of heparin and alkalinized lidocaine for the treatment of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS).Methods Data from the chnical records of 31 patients (30 female and 1 male) with IC/BPS were analyzed retrospectively.Transurethral fulguration and biopsy were performed.Intravesical instillation of heparin and alkalinized lidocaine (25 000 units of hepmin,10 mL of 2% lidocaine,and 5 mL of 5% sodium bicarbonate) was administered weekly for 8 weeks.Thereafter,intmvesical instillation treatment was administered twice a month.The interstitial cystitis symptom index and problem index (O'Leary-Sant index),visual analog scale score for pain,quality-of-life index,voiding frequency,bladder capacity,and side effects of intravesical instillation were recorded preoperatively and at the first and sixth month follow-ups postoperatively.Results The follow-up period was 6 to 24 months.The interstitial cystitis symptom index and problem index,visual analog scale score for pain,quality-of-life index,daily voiding time,and maximal bladder volume improved significantly in 28 cases (90.32%;P < 0.01),and no significant adverse effects were observed.Two patients underwent cystectomy,and the symptoms disappeared after the operation.Carcinoma in situ was detected on histopathological examination in one patient.Conclusion Transurethral fulguration with intravesical instillation of heparin and alkalinized lidocaine is a safe and effective therapy for IC/BPS.
