About

This initial pilot project aims to study the use of FDA-approved 40mg triamcinolone injections in the bladder for the management of interstitial cystitis with or without Hunner's lesions. Intradetrusor triamcinolone injections are already the standard of care for IC patients with Hunner's lesions, but its role in management of IC without Hunner's lesions has yet to be determined. Triamcinolone is a long-acting corticosteroid that acts by inhibiting the migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, which may contribute to attenuation of inflammation in interstitial cystitis. We will recruit 27 females 18 years of age or older that have been diagnosed with IC/BPS. Patients will undergo a one-time cystoscopy along with the triamcinolone injections for IC management as a part of the research study. Validated questionnaires will be provided before the treatment to quantify symptoms at baseline and after treatment at follow-up visits. Follow up visits will occur in clinic every 4 to 6 weeks, which will continue for a maximum of 1 year. Scores at follow-up visits will be compared to baseline.
