The Gyrus ACMI Double Pigtail Ureteral Stent (#5606026) is a sterile, single-use stent designed for temporary internal drainage from the ureteropelvic junction to the bladder. It features a classic double pigtail (curled) design at both ends to secure placement and minimize migration risk. Constructed from Tecoflex®, the stent is firm during placement and softens at body temperature for enhanced patient comfort. The hydrophilic coating ensures smooth insertion and removal, even in challenging anatomy. The stent is radiopaque for easy visualization under fluoroscopy or X-ray and includes spiral drainage holes to resist kinking and provide reliable urine flow.
