The Gyrus ACMI Classic Double Pigtail Ureteral Stent (#5604520) is a sterile, single-use stent designed for temporary internal drainage from the ureteropelvic junction to the bladder. It features a double pigtail (curled) design at both ends to prevent migration and maintain secure positioning within the urinary tract. This model is hydrophilic coated to facilitate smooth insertion and removal, and is radiopaque for visualization under fluoroscopy or X-ray. The stent is constructed for flexibility and patient comfort, and is suitable for use in urological procedures addressing ureteral obstruction due to stones, strictures, tumors, or post-surgical conditions.
