简要总结
Double J ureteric stenting has been one of the most common urologicalprocedures performed as an adjunct since its ï¬rst inception in 1978 . Bydeï¬nition, the double-J or pigtail stent is a tube placed within the ureterallumen in a retrograde or antegrade fashion in order to drain an obstructedkidney or to use as splint in ureteral repair and injury. The double-J ureteralstent has been widely applied during the endourological surgery to relieve orprevent ureteral obstruction. Stent-related morbidities, such as lower urinarytract symptoms (LUTS), stent-related body pain and hematuria, are bothersomeand might have a negative impact on quality of life (QoL) and sexualperformance for both genders.
In this study we will try to improve our understanding of relationbetween various stent characteristics and symptoms associated with stenting. Thiswill help urologists in selecting stent for patients as well as counsellingpatients preoperatively regarding their probability of experiencing stent relatedsymptoms.
