Article Synopsis
- - Cervical cancer is a significant health issue in Ethiopia, often leading to advanced disease when diagnosed, with ureteral involvement being common, necessitating stent placement to manage obstruction.
- - A study reviewed data from 175 patients who underwent ureteral stenting, finding an overall success rate of only 54.2%, with lower success in those needing therapeutic stenting compared to prophylactic.
- - Key factors predicting stent failure included bilateral hydronephrosis and elevated serum creatinine levels, suggesting that alternatives like percutaneous nephrostomy might be more effective for these patients.
