Summary

This study tested a special ureteral stent with a magnetic end in 67 children with urinary tract problems or kidney transplants. The goal was to see if the stent could be removed without general anesthesia, using a magnetic catheter instead. The approach aims to make the removal process simpler and less stressful for children.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
magnetic-end Double-J ureteral stent
What this could lead to
If successful, this could make stent removal easier and avoid the need for general anesthesia in children.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study (67 children) with no control group, so results may not apply broadly. The magnetic removal system may fail in some cases.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Child aged between 0 and 17 years and 10 months at the surgery * Child operated at the Necker hospital for an uropathy or kidney graft need the insertion of JJ ureteral stent * Parents or legal guardians signed the Informed consent form * Social insurance affiliation Exclusion Criteria: * All clinical situation need an MRI * Contraindication with the experimental medical device (severe infections, obstruction, …) For the medico-economic study, a comparative group will be constituted with patients treated with classic ureteral stent in the Necker hospital in the previous years. This group will be matched with age (\<5 years, 5-12 years and \>13years), sex and surgery indication (kidney graft or other).
