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.
