Abstract
Ureteral stents, placed cystoscopically or percutaneously, have proved useful in a variety of indications. We present our technique for the placement of soft, biocompatible stents. With this material and technique, successful placement has been achieved in 77% of cases, with no significant complications, excellent patient tolerance, and a high degree of utility in achieving the desired outcome.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
