Introduction:

The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of the auto expanding Allium® Ureteral Stent (URS) in the endourological management of UPJ stenosis and ureteric strictures.

Introduction: Several prostatic stents were developed in the last three decades, none of which were able to provide a real alternative in patients unfit or unwilling to undergo classical prostatic surgeries. In this study, we report the results of the use of a newly developed prostatic stent—the Allium™ Triangular Prostatic Stent (TPS).

Patients and Methods: The Allium TPS is a highly flexible, nitinol-built polymer-covered stent, which pr

Urethral strictures (US) can be recurrent chronic illnesses leading to severe side effects and poor quality of life. Several options to treat US exist, including repeated dilatations, stents, and open surgery. A urethral stent is a good, minimally invasive option but has major limitations, such as stent migration, mucosal growth, and incontinence, especially for bladder-neck strictures. Herein, we describe a new stent that, due to its design, may solve some o
