Material Characteristic of an Innovative Stent for the Treatment of Urethral Stenosis

Abstract: The appropriate development and customisation of the stent to the urethral tissues requires the determination of many factors such as strength and degradation. Given the distinctive conditions of urethral tissues, it is important that the design of the stent be properly developed. The selection of a stent material requires knowing its material characteristics and verifying that they are suitable for the future implantation site. In the present study, the development of a polydioxanone (PDO)-based stent was und… Show more
