The Story
Boston Scientific M0061921530 Polaris Ultra Dual Durometer Percuflex Material Ureteral Stent 8F x 26cm 1/EA
• Model: M0061921530
• 8F x 26cm
The Boston Scientific Polaris Ultra Dual Durometer Ureteral Stent (8F × 26 cm) is engineered to provide reliable urinary drainage from the kidney to the bladder while mitigating some of the patient discomfort typically associated with indwelling stents. Its dual durometer structure means that the section of the stent within the upper urinary tract (renal pelvis and ureter) maintains enough stiffness for stable placement, while the bladder-coil end is softer and more conformable to reduce irritation of the bladder wall and trigone. The soft Nautilus™ bladder coil is explicitly intended to reduce bladder symptoms such as urgency, frequency, and pain.
The stent’s Percuflex™ core material, combined with the HydroPlus™ hydrophilic coating, is designed for smooth navigation and insertion through the ureter. The taper at the renal tip aids in atraumatic passage into the renal pelvis, and the coated surface helps reduce friction with the ureteral mucosa. Graduated radiopaque markings allow precise positioning and verification under fluoroscopic guidance. Because the design intends to balance rigidity and flexibility, it aims to reduce migration while maintaining patient comfort.
Clinically, the 8F × 26 cm configuration is likely used in patients whose ureteral length or anatomy requires a longer stent, and where a larger lumen (8F) is desired to facilitate drainage or resist occlusion. The material claims support long-term indwelling (up to 365 days in suitable cases), so the Polaris Ultra stent can be considered for both short-term and extended use cases (depending on patient and provider judgment). As always with ureteral stents, success depends on appropriate selection, accurate placement, and careful patient monitoring for complications such as migration, encrustation, or symptoms related to bladder irritation.
