A ureteral stent is a thin tube that's placed in ureter to help drain urine from kidney and to aid with healing and urine drainage after kidney stone surgery or kidney related surgeries. The ureters are held open with ureteral stents, which are thin, flexible tubes. These long, thin tubes usually transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Ureteral stents are medical devices that are used to prevent or treat ureteral blockages. There are various types of ureteral stents, which include double pigtail suture stent (PSS) that has a hydrophobic coating to reduce encrustation and biofilm, and Multiloop ureteral stent, which is intended to temporarily facilitate drainage of urine from kidney to bladder.

Global ureteral stents market is estimated to be valued at US$ 498.2 Mn in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.6% over the forecast period (2022-2030).
