ABSTRACT
Urethrocystoscopy is now routinely done in standard Urological practice. The availability of the flexible cystoscope for outpatient procedures has further increased the number of cystoscopists. However, there are currently no formal training schedules for urethrocystoscopy. This mnemonic has been developed to serve as a template for complete endoscopic examination of the lower urinary tract to which the cystoscopist may refer when undertaking this operation. It focuses on the common abnormalities that the endoscopist may encounter, and is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all abnormalities of the lower urinary tract. Furthermore, it is not meant to obviate the need for practical training of those wishing to carry out the procedure as part of their clinical practice.
