Editing Bladder Diverticulae (section)

===== Endoscopic surgical management =====
* '''Transurethral resection of the diverticular neck may be combined with fulguration of the entire urothelial lining of the diverticulum'''
** The neck of the diverticulum is incised using the resectoscope loop or Collins knife. Incisions are carried down to the muscular fibers of the bladder at the level of the ostium of the diverticulum. Circumferential resection of the entire neck may be performed.
** Fulguration of the lining of the diverticulum should result in obliteration of the diverticulum or a considerable reduction in its size.
* '''May be considered in:'''
** '''Elderly or comorbid'''
** '''Those who are not good candidates for open operative approach'''
** '''Those undergoing TURP in whom there is an associated poorly draining diverticulectomy'''
