Ureteral obstruction caused by schistosomiasis
Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2013 We report a unusual case of hydro-ureteronephrosis caused by schistosomiasis in a 66-year-old female. Computed tomography (CT) and biochemistry initially suggested a transitional cell carcinoma of the left proximal ureter. The patient was referred for reno-ureterectomy, but histopathological examination of the resection specimen demonstrated deposits ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a
