Stent occlusion remains a major problem in biliary stenting, and emergency treatment is required. Various second stents, such as plastic stent (PS), uncovered self-expanding metallic stent (SEMS), and covered SEMS, are selected considering primary inserted stent, causes of stent occlusion, and prognosis of the patients.

To Stent or Not to Stent? That Is Still the Question
Journal of Endourology, 2000Most patients are stented after ureteroscopy for stone extraction. This practice necessitates a second procedure to remove the stent, with its inherent morbidity. The aim of our study was to determine whether routine stenting of the ureter is really necessary after ureteroscopy.This prospective study evaluated 26 men and 18 women admitted for elective ...

To Stent or Not to Stent: The President Bush Stent Controversy
Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 2013Politicians, especially US presidents, are involved in the harsh, palatable realities of politics, activities that lead not only to headaches but to heartache as well. Once someone in power presents with cardiovascular disease, its management becomes the subject of debate among the medical community and the media; it boosts heart disease awareness and ...

Stenting the stent: Alternative strategy for treating in‐stent restenosis
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1996Several approaches have been taken to relieve restenosis inside a vascular stent. In a patient with a complicated history of coronary artery disease, a restenotic lesion inside a Gianturco-Roubin flex stent was relieved by angioplasty and deployment of three 10 mm Palmaz P-104 "biliary" stents, with urokinase and verapamil used to prevent ...

Ureteral Stenting or No Stenting
2012It has been a popular and accepted surgical tradition to place a ureteral stent after performing ureteroscopy especially when performing lithotripsy for ureteral calculi. The rationale for this surgical custom is based on historical animal models, which demonstrated ureteral obstruction after ureteral dilation as well as anecdotal evidence that ...

Ureteral Stents: To Stent or Not to Stent, That Is a Great Question! [PDF]
, 2014 Some stones will move from the kidney and lodge within the ureter causing a blockage, referred to as ureteral obstruction. The back up of urine that ensues will cause the kidney to swell, known as hydronephrosis. This hydronephrosis may translate in significant flank pain, which can eventually bring a patient to the ER.

Endoscopic aqueductoplasty: stent or not to stent?
Child's Nervous System, 2004The aim of this study is to evaluate if the long-term interventricular communication following aqueductoplasty is determined by the etiology of the aqueductal stenosis (AS).We retrospectively analyzed 27 patients who underwent endoscopic aqueductoplasty or endoscopic interventriculostomy with or without a stent for the treatment of AS or isolated ...

Bulletin de l'Académie Nationale de Médecine, 2005
By making safe the act and decreasing the restenosis risk, the stent had contributed to the development of coronary artery angioplasty which fill nowadays the whole of clinical and coronarographical field of coronary artery disease. The new stent, coated with substances amenable to minimise the best the restenosis risk, holds the hope of the ...
