Urologists have long used urinary stents in patients who have - or
who are at risk of developing - an obstruction or blockage of the
kidney. These rodlike devices are inserted into the ureter to keep
the canal open or to help with healing after trauma, surgery or
radiotherapy. More recently the use of stents for the prostate and
urethra has also become more widespread, despite poor results in
first generation models. Constant development has led to the
introduction of second generation stents with a variety of designs,
materials and coatings. These have gone a long way to counter the
traditional side effects such as irritation, hematuria, infection
and encrustation. Handbook of Urinary Stents has been written to
provide urologists with a practical guide to the various new models
for stenting. The book describes the various stents available; the
criteria for their selection; their clinical application and
potential complications of use. At the same time, the book provides
thorough descriptions of relevant physiology and pathophysiology
for those requiring deeper understanding of the subject. Key Points
Provides a comprehensive, timely review for urologists needing an
accessible guide to the range of stents available Chapters
highlight the use of stents in special populations such as children
and patients with transplanted ureter Emphasis on clinical
complications following the use of stents and how to manage them
effectively
