An expandable ureteral stent (135) placed in a patient's ureter (105) so as to extend into the bladder (115) of the patient. Expansion and contraction of the stent accommodates motion of the patient's kidney (155) and bladder (115), gently holding the stent in position and reducing patient discomfort. The length of the stent is variable up to several centimeters.
L'invention concerne une endoprothèse (135) urétérale extensible placée dans l'uretère (105) d'un patient de manière à avancer dans la vessie (115) du patient. L'extension et la contraction de l'endoprothèse respectent les mouvements du rein (155) et de la vessie (115) du patient, et permettent de maintenir en place l'endoprothèse avec ménagement, réduisant ainsi l'inconfort du patient. La longueur de l'endoprothèse peut être variée de plusieurs centimètres.
