    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Devices
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Ureteral stents, once placed, are difficult to access for interventions.
    • Current methods for stent management can be challenging and invasive.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new ureteral stent set designed for improved accessibility.
    • To enable retrograde study of the collecting system and facilitate stent exchange.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a specialized ureteral stent set.
    • Utilizing the set for retrograde opacification of the collecting system.
    • Employing the set for stent exchange, with or without cystoscope assistance.

    Main Results:

    • The new stent set allows for retrograde study of the collecting system.

  • Successful stent exchange was achieved with the new set, with or without cystoscopy.
  • The set proved beneficial for opacification during extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

    • Conclusions:

    • The developed ureteral stent set offers enhanced functionality and accessibility.
    • This innovation simplifies procedures requiring collecting system visualization or stent exchange.
    • The stent set is a valuable tool in urological interventions such as lithotripsy and ureteroscopy.
