Over the past decade, the development and deployment of a biodegradable urethral stent has gradually gained academic acceptance. The polymers of hydroxyl acids have good biocompatibility properties, and it is possible to make stents with different expansion rates and degradation times. For certain urologic conditions, there is an intrinsic advantage to the use of a bioabsorption device, because it eliminates the need for a second operation for stent removal. In this article, Tammela and Talja review the current state of biodegradable urethral stents and consider future possibilities.
