Ileal ureter replacement for patients with long ureteral strictures after Allium stent failure: the initial experience

Key Points

Ileal ureter replacement offers a viable solution for managing long ureteral strictures after stent failure.
Patients with complex ureteral issues may benefit significantly from this salvage option.
Assessment focuses on the effectiveness of iliac ureter replacement in post-stent failure scenarios, indicating promise for future applications.
Management strategies underscore the need for careful application of Allium stents, given their limitations.
