Ureteral stents are thin tubes placed in the ureter to help drain urine from the kidney. Their top portion sits on the kidney and the opposite end curls around the bladder. They are primarily utilized to let urine flow through the blocked ureter, decrease the pain associated with the blockage, allow the kidney to function normally and keep the ureter open. They assist in treating and managing conditions like kidney stones, kidney transplants and urinary incontinence. Besides this, they are also used during the treatment of prostate cancer and tumors across the globe.

The rising incidences of kidney and ureteral stones on account of the increasing number of individuals that smoke and consume alcohol represents one of the key factors driving the ureteral stents market. Ureteral stents play a vital role in the procedure of ureteroscopy and ureterorenoscopy. Moreover, during kidney transplants, they are placed in the body of the patient for a few days until the newly implanted kidney adapts to the body. Apart from this, the growing number of renal transplants and rising concerns related to renal dysfunction have also fueled the need for ureteral stents around the world. Furthermore, technological developments in ureteral stents, including the usage of biodegradable materials, have resulted in efficient and improved outcomes concerning urinary and kidney disorders. Moreover, the key players are focusing on reducing stent migration, ureterovesical reflux and tissue irritation during the procedure, which is anticipated to strengthen the market growth.
