Summary

Ureteral double- J stent is usually inserted by retrograde approach for the treatment of obstructed upper urinary tract.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Antegrade double-J stent

After exchanging the nephrostomy catheter over the J-tipped guidewire, 5 F multipurpose (45° tip) diagnostic vascular catheter was inserted. Once the pelvi¬ureteric junction was crossed and the ureter accessed, a straight hydrophilic guidewire and a catheter were used. Then, the cath-eter was advanced into the bladder over the wire, this guidewire was exchanged for an ultra-stiff guidewire, an 8 or 10 F double J ureteral stent was placed over the guidewire, and the safety kit of the stent was removed. A final fluoroscopic image was stored for correcting the stent position.
