Multiple Choice

Preoperative diagnosis: Bladder tumor, 3.4 cm

Procedure: The patient was placed in the lithotomy position after receiving IV sedation. He was prepped and draped. A 21-French cystoscope was passed into the bladder; a previous CT scan of the bladder indicated a tumor of approximately 3.4 cm. After inspection of the bladder with the cystoscope, the findings were consistent with a bladder tumor but the size was inconsistent; the actual finding was a size of 4.2 cm. A biopsy was taken, and laser surgery was performed with fulguration on the removal of the tumor. The patient tolerated the procedure well.
