Ureteral stenting (also known as double J stent) is the procedure to place a thin, flexible plastic tube that is temporarily in the ureter to help urine drain from the kidney into the bladder in the case of a blockage. Steps to use DJ Stent: The doctor will insert a cystoscope through the urethra and into the bladder, visualizing the opening to the ureter. A thin wire is then guided through the cystoscope, up the ureter, and into the kidney. The stent is inserted over the wire. A fluoroscope, a kind of x-ray machine, may be used to position the stent. The wire and cystoscope are then removed.
