Single Versus Double Ureteral Stent Placement After Laser Endoureterotomy for the Management of Benign Ureteral Strictures: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Abstract

Double stent placement of the ureter after laser endoureterotomy achieved a higher success rate compared with single stent placement in cases of benign ureteral strictures. Although ureteral strictures (≤1.5 cm) achieved better outcome after laser endoureterotomy, strictures (>1.5 cm) favored better with double stent versus single stent placement.
