The cystoscopic manipulation was done in 52 cases of ureteral stones who visited the Department of Urology, Soon-Chun-Hyang College Hospital during the period of 18 months from May. 1979 to August. 1980 using Dormia stone disloger and the following results were obtained. 1. With the Dormia stone dislodger, 27 cases of ureteral stone were removed successfully. 2. The ureteral stone passed in 8 cases within 72 hours after manipulation. 3. Of the 27 cases, 2 cases were middle ureteral stone and 25 cases were lower ureteral stone. 4. The largest stone measured 6.5 x 13 mm. 5. There were no major complication but minor complication occurred such as fever, pain and gross hematuria.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the effect of diagnostic cystoscopy in early detection of ureteral injury at the time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: Retrospectively 598 women who received total laparoscopic hysterectomy from August 2004 to August 2006 were included. They were divided into two groups : no cystoscopic examination (n=398) group (Group A) and routine intraoperative diagnostic cystoscopic examination after intravenous indigo-carmine injection (n=200) group (Group B). The rates of ureteral injury after total laparoscopic hysterectomy were compared between both groups. RESULTS: Postoperative ureteral injury was observed in 3 case of Group A (3/398 : 0.75%) and in no case of Group B. In 2 cases of group B (2/200 : 1.00%), Intraoperative ureteral injury was detected by cystoscopy. CONCLUSION: Routine intraoperative diagnostic cystoscopy allows for early recognition and treatment of obstructive ureteral injuries, and reduces the rate of late postoperative ureteral complications during advanced laparoscopic procedures.

Recently, primary ureteral tumors are more frequently reported in urological field even though considered as rare. We have observed a case of primary ureteral tumor confirmed with the cystoscopy and retrograde pyeloureterogram. Choice of operation is nephro-ureterectomy with removal of a cuff of bladder wall around the ureteral orifice. It is necessary for a physician to make the early diagnosis and removal of the tumor as soon as possible.

The need for film recording in endoscopic practice is important with the present demand for documentation and teaching (legal problem). The electronic endoscopy which has a very small charge coupled device (CCD) at the distal end of an endoscope yields several times more resolving power than conventional optical endoscopes. However the system has not been utilized in Urologic field because there has not enough space for CCD at the end of the telescope comparing to the endoscope in Gastroenterology field. However the video converter with CCD could be adapted to the eyepiece of the telescope, and the automatic monitor photo unit (CVP 600, SAMSUNG, KOREA), video system and monitor were used for imaging, which is so called Urologic Video Information System (UV1S). The image processing was done by instantaneous system (CCD color camera, EC-202 II, ELMO, Japan) with conventional optical light source. From September 1992 to August 1996, we did cystoscopic examination with CCD in 1079 cases.

Despite current practice there is no evidence to demonstrate the efficacy of intraurethral 2% lidocaine gel as an anesthetic for rigid cystoscopy. To evaluate the usefulness of lidocaine on decreasing pain associated with cystoscopy, we performed a randomized controlled study comparing 2% lidocaine gel with a plain water based lubricant. Pain was recorded on a visual analogue scale by the patient and by the physician. Physician perception of pain experienced by the patient was compared with the actual pain experienced. We found decrease in pain perception in men following lidocaine gel instillation with a 5 or 10 minute dwell time compared to instillation of the plain lubricant.

Inverted papilloma of the urinary tract is a rare benign lesion. We report, to our knowledge, the first case of inverted papilloma of the prostatic urethra arising in a juvenile. Our patient was referred for evaluation of painless, gross hematuria and voiding difficulty. Transrectal sonography demonstrated a 1.4 cm papillary lesion on the medial aspect of the prostatic urethra. Cystoscopy showed a solitary, papillary tumor on the prostatic urethra. Transurethral resection was performed and histological examination showed an inverted papilloma.

The cystoscopic manipulation was applied in 35 cases of lower third ureteral stones who visited the Department of Urology Red Cross Hospital during the period of 2 years 4 months from March 1st, 1980 to June 31th, 1982, using wooven loop stone dislodger and dormia stone dislodger and following result were obtained. A)With dormia stone dislodger. 1. In 8 cases, low third ureteral stones were extruded immediately and 2 lower third ureteral stones were delivered spontaneously after cystoscopic manipulation. 2. In 3 cases, dormia stone dislodger could not by pass the stones. B)With woven stone dislodger. 1. In 9 cases, lower third ureteral stones were extracted immediately and 4 lower third ureteral stones were delivered spontaneously after cystoscopic manipulation. 2. In 2 cases, wooven stone dislodger could not by pass the stones. 3. There were no major complications but minor complications occurred such as fever, flank pain and gross hematuria.

Three cases of cystitis are described which showed irregular filling defect on the excretory cystogram and were confused with the proliferative neoplasm of bladder. Urine examination, cystoscopy and biopsy demonstrated chronic non-specific cystitis in two cases and tuberculous cystitis in another one.
