The Dornier Cascade CAS6026 Ureteral Stent is a sterile, single-use, double pigtail stent designed to relieve ureteral obstruction due to stones, strictures, malignancy, trauma, or post-procedural swelling. Constructed from a radiopaque thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and coated with a hydrophilic layer, the stent is engineered for smooth, atraumatic insertion and secure positioning within the urinary tract. Its double pigtail design anchors the stent in both the renal pelvis and bladder, minimizing migration and maximizing patient comfort. The CAS6026 model is sized at 6 French diameter and 26 cm length, making it suitable for a wide range of adult urological procedures.
