Multi‐length or 24 cm ureteric stent? A multicentre randomised comparison of stent‐related symptoms using a validated questionnaire

Abstract

This study did not find any difference in symptoms between the 24 cm or multi-length Contour stents. However, the study was not powered to detect small differences particularly for the pain symptom domain. Stents should only be used sparingly and the stent dwell-time should be minimised.
