Used for internal drainage from the ureteropelvic junction to the bladder while maintaining external access to the stent. Cope Nephroureterostomy Stents are not intended to remain indwelling more than 90 days.
The Cope Nephroureterostomy Stent is constructed of Ultrathane• and comes in two variations. Products with an "-A' suffix in their order numbers have sideports in the loops only, and are used for bypassing lacerated ureters. Products with a "43' suffix in their order numbers have sideports in the loops and in the entire distal segment, and are used for all other stenting purposes. Both "A' and '1" stents are available with the Mac Loc' Locking Loop.
