Mechanical performance of polyurethane ureteral stents in vitro and ex vivo

A serious problem associated with the use of ureteral stents is fracture in situ. Following clinical observations of fracture of polyurethane stents in vivo, this study examined the mechanical properties of 17 polyurethane stents (double-J containing drainage holes) retrieved from patients over a 24...
