No place for routine urine cytology in haematuria

24 Jun 2013Registered users

A study from a UK teaching hospital looked at 2,778 patients, 1,867 men, with haematuria, seen between 1999 and 2007. The study authors conclude that cytology testing is costly, adds little value to investigation of haematuria and should be omitted from guidelines for the initial assessment of haematuria.
