A Prospective, Multicenter, Open Label Study Investigating the Implementation of a Standardized Algorithm for Coronary CaLcificatiOn With PlaquE Modification Using UltraSound Guidance to Improve Procedural and Clinical Outcomes (CYCLOPES): Design and Rationale of the CYCLOPES Trial

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 1018-1026, March 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Moderate‐to‐severe calcification is present in ~20%–30% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Coronary lesion modification is often necessary to facilitate optimal stent delivery and expansion, with several dedicated devices now approved for calcium modification before stent implantation. The CYCLOPES study aims to evaluate

Coexistence of multiple ureteral and ureterocele stones in a patient

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Urology, 2020
Background Uroterocele causes atony and stagnation in the ureter, thus predisposing the patient to stone formation. Multiple calculi in uroteroceles are common in adults but very rare in children.
