Clinical experience with a new universal-length silicone ureteral stent set is described. The technique for placing the stent is discussed in detail. The softness and universal length of the stent are important advantages over rigid stents. The set includes a peel-away sheath- introducing system, which allows for easy and rapid placement of a soft stent in most cases. Thirty-one stents have been placed since July 1985, with a mean follow-up of 17 weeks for 21 patients. There have been no stent malfunctions, and no significant complications have been encountered.
