Abstract:
Ureteral stent is a common in vivo implant in urinary surgery. Due to a long time of implantation, it is easy to form bacterial biofilms and lead to uncontrollable ureteral stent associated urinary tract infection.The ureteral stents modified with various antimicrobial strategies have different antibacterial properties. The antimicrobial coating or the slow-release ureteral stents, enzyme-modified ureteral stents, metallic ureteral stents, polymer brush ureteral stents, biodegradable ureteral stents, and other antimicrobial materials modified ureteral stents were illustrated in this article.
