Abstract
The acceptability and complications of tethered double-J stents were assessed in 17 patients. The study showed tethered ureteric stents to be safe, well tolerated and easy to remove. The technique avoids unnecessary urethral instrumentation and general anaesthesia and has benefits for both patients and hospital resources.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
