“…Endoscopic management via balloon dilatation or laser endopyelotomy is usually considered an initial choice in treating ureteric strictures. Additionally, there is some evidence that two ipsilateral ureteric stents (tandem stents) have shown better long‐term patency following treatment of ureteric stricture than a single stent [5]. Our patient underwent several endoscopic treatments with balloon dilatation and even tandem stent placement; however, despite this, the patient's symptoms persisted, and a CT scan showed ongoing mild hydronephrosis.…”

“…In 1987, double-J stent was used for the first time. The commonly used ureteral stents are double-J stent [21], metal stent [22,23], new anti biological peptide stent, etc. According to different conditions, it is very important to choose the appropriate stent [24].…”

“…It usually responds well to PZQ alone in children and adolescents. Adults with mild hydronephrosis can be treated with laser endoureterotomy, stenting or a combination of both[ 147 ]. In case of severe hydronephrosis, ureteral reimplantation is suggested [ 148 ].…”
