Retrograde ureteric stent exchange in the female oncology patient by interventional radiology: the experience of a single tertiary referral centre
ConclusionFluoroscopic-guided retrograde double-J stent exchange is a safe and effective procedure that can be performed with a high degree of success using equipment and techniques used in daily IR practice. This approach precludes the need for GA, reduces OT utilisation and is well tolerated in a patient group for whom this procedure is typically palliative.
