Endoscopic stone management in an ectopic ureter inserting into the prostatic urethra.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We report a case of successful endoscopic stone management in a patient with ectopic ureteric insertion. The patient had a complete duplex collecting system, with the upper moiety ureter inserting ectopically into his prostatic urethra, and an obstructing ureteric stone in the distal portion of the ectopic ureter. This made both characterisation of the patient's anatomy and initial emergency stone management challenging.The case offers several learning points for clinicians who may encounter similar situations. By describing the challenges of managing this patient's presentation, we highlight considerations in imaging interpretation and operative approach that may help the reader manage a similar presentation to their practice. Additionally, we remind the urologist to consider the implications of an ectopic duplex ureter on future procedures, such as transurethral resection of the prostate or radical prostatectomy.
