Ureteral stents are often used by urologists in treating patients with urinary tract obstruction. Ureteral stricture in particular, can be attributed to the build-up of fibrosis during the scarring process. Studies have shown that Mitomycin C (MMC) impedes fibroblast proliferation and is effective i...
