The major advantage of the flexible video cystoscope is that a digital signal can be obtained while high frequency cauterization is carried out. Cauterization while observing a digital signal picture was not possible before this new model was developed. We decided to use this new cystoscope to resect a bladder tumor and coagulate the bleeding because the patient could tolerate only local anesthesia due to severe heart disease complications. We successfully treated the patient with this technique and no complications were noted. This new flexible video cystoscope was found to be safe for resecting bladder tumor under local anesthesia.
