We noticed that some recent studies investigated whether complete intraureteral stent placement (CIU-SP) reduced these symptoms. The current systemic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the safety and the effectiveness of CIU-SP, as compared to conventional stent placement (C-SP).enLower urinary tract symptoms; Pain measurement; Quality of life; Stent; Ureter[SDGs]SDG3[SDGs]SDG4Complete intraureteral stent placement reduces stent-related symptoms: Systemic review and meta-analysisreview10.1016/j.jfma.2022.06.014358640252-s2.0-85134840704WOS:000875833500020https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85134840704
