PURPOSE: Polymeric and metallic stents are commonly used to manage patients with chronic malignant ureteric obstruction (CMUO). This paper compares the outcomes of ureteral stenting via the Resonance METHODS: A retrospective case series was conducted whereby patients who had undergone Resonance RESULTS: 11 patients who presented with CMUO underwent 12 separate procedures of either unilateral or bilateral ureteral stenting. Total number of stents inserted was 16. Median age of patients was 65 (Range = 32) and 72.73% were males. 66.67% of the procedures yielded an improvement in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients as compared to before stenting. Stent failure, defined by stent removal before recommended removal date, occurred in 4 out of 16 (25%) stents. The median duration of Resonance CONCLUSION: We conclude that the Resonance
