MATERIALS AND METHODS A 14-item web-based survey was distributed among members of the German, Austrian, and Swiss Associations of Urology, addressing physicians who perform cystoscopies and transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURB). RESULTS The survey was responded to by 308 of 5,564 urologists with a mean age of 49.5 years (response rate 5.5%). The majority of participants (57.3%) practice in an outpatient setting. White light cystoscopy only is used by 60.2%, with additional photodynamic diagnosis and narrow band imaging by 36.8 and 12.5%, respectively. Endoscopic findings are documented in written form by 93.5%, followed by image capture (33.7%) and a central data archive (20.8%). Inpatient hospital urologists document cystoscopic findings by freehand drawing (21.4 vs. 11.4%, p = 0.017), and with a fixed bladder scheme (31.3 vs. 7.4%, less then 0.05) significantly more frequently. Cystoscopic findings are mainly conveyed to other health professionals in written form (77.4%), and significantly more often by inpatient urologists (p less then 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Significant differences exist in the approach to documenting and communicating cystoscopic BC findings. Accurate graphic documentation of lesions, visualization of the mucosa's totality, and meticulous consultation of previous surgical reports require improvements to reduce recurrence and progression rates. © 2020 S. Karger AG, Basel.BACKGROUND Chronic stimulation of the thalamus is a surgical option in the management of intractable Holmes tremor. Patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) can encounter infection as a postoperative complication, necessitating explantation of the hardware. Some studies have reported on the technique and the resulting efficacy of therapeutic lesioning through implanted DBS leads b
