Abstract

An anti-reflux ureteral stent (10) includes an elongated member (12) with a distal end (14) having a first retention structure (16) and a proximal end (28) having a second retention structure (20). A lumen extends between the distal and proximal ends. The elongated member may include a valve (22) near the proximal end and distal to the second retention structure. The valve may include one or more slits or windows tending to render the elongated member collapsible. The valve may include one or more protrusions to partially occlude the lumen. A protrusion, if present, may be shaped as a helical thread. The second retention structure may be shaped as a barb to engage a ureteral orifice in a bladder.
