The advantage of the flexible cystoscope is that the cystoscopy procedure becomes fast and convenient for the urologist at bedside, ED or office conditions. Additionally, both optical and working channel are combined into a single unit which in turn eliminates the need of the multichannel bridges and the external sheath.

The additional features of the flexible cystoscope are as follows:

1. Ease of surgery
2. Atraumatic
3. No anaesthesia required in most procedures
4. No special position required
5. Less pain than rigid cystoscopy
6. Distal diameter – 14F to 16.2 F
7. Length 37cm to 40cm
