Purpose Of Review:
This manuscript aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiology, risk factors, prevention strategies, and management options for radiation cystitis.
Recent Findings:
Recent studies have shed light on the pathophysiology of radiation cystitis, highlighting the role of inflammation, fibrosis, and vascular damage. Emerging preventive measures like stem cell therapy offer promise, alongside novel treatments such as amniotic bladder therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This review outlines the latest research on radiation cystitis, covering its pathophysiology, risk factors, prevention, and management. Major findings include insights into the mechanisms of RC development, promising preventive and therapeutic approaches, and the importance of standardized treatment pathways. Future research should focus on identifying genetic risk factors, improving treatment efficacy, and enhancing patient outcomes. This review offers valuable insights for clinicians and researchers, guiding future investigations into radiation cystitis management.
