Antegrade and Retrograde Ureteral Stenting

  • Chapter
Percutaneous and Interventional Urology and Radiology

Part of the book series: Clinical Practice in Urology ((PRACTICE UROLOG))

Abstract

Ureteral stents have been used for many years to provide both short- and long- term drainage of the urinary tract. Early stents were primarily placed in conjunction with ureteral surgery. The efficacy of polyethylene in ureteral catheters was described in 1951 [11]. Retrograde placement of indwelling silicone rubber ureteral tubing was reported in 1967 for use in patients with ureteral obstruction [62].
