“…Although we used topical urethral anesthesia, most of the patients (>60%) had moderate or severe pain during UCS in this study. In the literature, pain during UCS was generally moderate, between 3-4.8 on VAS sheet [6,[14][15][16][17][18][19]. Pain scores in our patient group were a little higher than in the literature (mean VAS score 4.3-5.1).…”

“…On the other hand, some authors suggest intravenous anesthesia for UCS [8]. Nevertheless, approximately 11 ml of 2% lignocaine gel instilled slowly in the urethra 15 min prior to the procedure is suggested in most studies [3,[14][15][16]. We believe that lidocaine jelly can decrease pain significantly in men when used in adequate amounts and for a sufficient length of time before the procedure.…”

“…2,5,13,14 In the present study, however, gender, age, and history of previous procedure were not statistically correlated with pain perception. We assume that the absence of differences between genders could be partly explained by cystoscope type (flexible in men vs. rigid in women).…”

“…Such a tangle between apprehension, painful sensation, and discomfort has already been described in the literature, 10,11 and several authors have demonstrated that patients systematically anticipated more pain than they actually experienced. 3,5,12 In the present study, multivariate analysis divulged an increased proportion of patients with anxiety before cystoscopy in the younger population (18-50 years old). Such cystoscopy-and UDs-related anxiety, pain, and embarrassment a correlation has already been demonstrated by Yiou et al in patients undergoing UDS.…”
