Nephrostomy catheter Malecot

renalatraumatic tipPU

Description The Malecot catheter is a nephrostomy drainage catheter intended for percutaneous renal access and long-term urinary drainage. It features a flower-shaped Malecot retention mechanism for secure anchoring and passage of urine and stone fragments, a highly radiopaque construction for clear imaging, and a rounded atraumatic tip to reduce tissue trauma during placement. Constructed in PU (polyurethane) with options including trocar-needle variants to facilitate percutaneous insertion.
