Summary

This study tested a temporary urethral stent in 9 men with spinal cord injury who had trouble emptying their bladder due to a condition called detrusor sphincter dyssynergia. The stent is placed under local anesthesia and can be removed later, offering an alternative to permanent surgery. The goal was to see if it improved patients' ability to urinate and was safe to use.
