Dear Editor, We read with great interest the paper by Banerjee on 50 years' experience of clean intermittent self-catheterization (CISC) [[1]]. Further technical development has later provided female catheters, foldable catheters, and ready-to-use catheters for travelling purposes [[7]] as well as PVC-free catheters developed to reduce environmental impact [[8]]. Various bladder outlet disorders, underactive detrusor, neurogenic and non-neurogenic incontinence as well as voiding complications after bowel surgery or gynaecological procedures are often managed by CISC for longer or shorter periods of time.
