5 CONCLUSION
This study found that levobupivacaine administration diluted with
transurethral instilled isotonic solution in cystoscopy interventions is
a more effective method for pain control compared to lidocaine gel
alone. Thus, more effective pain control was achieved in the patient
group in which instillation with 10 mL of levobupivacaine was applied.
At the same time, patient satisfaction was higher in the levobupivacaine
groups in comparison with the lidocaine group. Although this method can
prevent possible general anesthesia complications by eliminating the
need for general anesthesia and is cost-effective, studies with larger
series are needed.
