A member asked:
Can a pediatric cystoscope be used on an adult male if the length is long enough? can a ureterscope be used to remove a ureteral stent? my ureterscopy with stent placement traumatized me and i want to minimize urethral discomfort post removal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ureteroscopy/Cystoscopy can be a traumatizing procedure in male patients. Ask your Dr for Valium or other sedative medication for the removal procedure. It will make you much more relaxed and comfortable.
