title: Improved method of double-J ureteric stenting.
abstract: Double-J ureteral stents and antegrade stenting have been performed by radiologists for years. Various methods have been described, dependent on available equipment as well as technical expertise. As such, there is no definite consensus with regards to deployment of these stents. We describe an innovative technique, which would improve this procedure and highlight its advantages.
