Side effect management and procedural best practices with indwelling intravesical drug-releasing systems in the treatment of bladder cancer: recommendations from expert panels
Two separate expert panels were convened to develop recommendations for side effect management with iDRS and optimizing iDRS insertion procedure success. Stepwise treatment-specific management strategies for LUTS, UTIs, and hematuria in patients receiving iDRS treatment that are familiar to practicing urologists are presented, including considerations for continuation or discontinuation of iDRS treatment. Several advanced techniques can be considered to improve iDRS insertions based on variations in patient anatomy.
