The safety and efficacy of through-and-through wire technique for ureteral Double-J stent placement.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the through-and-through wire (TTW) technique for antegrade ureteral Double-J stent placement after failure of either antegrade or retrograde ureteral stent placement. ⋯ The TTW technique was safe and effective in the undertaking of PCN and antegrade Double-J stent placement in patients for whom either antegrade or retrograde access had failed.

To study the clinical profile and management outcomes of non-tubal ectopic pregnancy at a tertiary care hospital in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). ⋯ Patients with NTEP were presented with varying symptoms and signs depending upon the location of NTEP. The different currently available management options for NTEP seem to be effective and safe when carefully selected based on the clinical merits of each case.
