We present a case of an 83-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis and chronic indwelling urethral catheter who was found to have a ureteral injury after inadvertent placement of a foley catheter into the proximal right ureter. Cystoscopy and retrograde ureteral stenting was attempted, but unsuccessful. The patient ultimately underwent successful antegrade ureteral stenting and nephrostomy placement. We review the limited literature on the topic of aberrant foley catheter placement into the ureter.

Objective: To evaluate whether the success rate of oral mifepristone was not inferior to that of Foley balloon catheter for outpatient cervical ripening of term pregnancies, and whether there were differences in side effects for mothers and newborns.
Design: Open-label, non-inferiority randomised controlled trial.
Setting: A tertiary care European university hospital in an urban setting.
This is the case of a 30-year-old nulliparous patient with a complete uterine septum, double cervix and non- obstructive longitudinal vaginal septum (Class U2bC2V1 according to the ESHRE/ESGE classification).

Hemorrhage is a common postpartum complication and, though rare, is also a recognized risk associated with abortion. While most cases can be managed with uterine evacuation and uterotonic agents, some cases require additional surgical procedures. We present two cases, one of hemorrhage following dilation and evacuation, and the other of delayed postpartum hemorrhage, where a Foley catheter was used for vacuum-induced hemorrhage control.
