Flexible cystoscopy allows examination of the bladder under local or general anaesthesia. This article describes the technique and the situations in which it is used, as well as its advantages and deficiencies. As the range of therapeutic applications of flexible cystoscopy increases, the need for rigid cystoscopy may disappear completely.
