Metallic ureteral stents in malignant ureteral obstruction: clinical factors predicting stent failure.

abstract：:Since 1993, we have treated patients having lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic obstruction using the high-energy transurethral microwave thermotherapy (HE-TUMT) protocol (Prostasoft; software version 2.5). This study was conducted to investigate the outcome and durability of this treatment. A series of ...
