Abstract
Background
Ureteric calculi commonly present with acute pain and may cause urinary obstruction. Management depends on stone size, location, obstruction and symptoms.
Objective
To evaluate the clinical profile, stone characteristics, management strategies and short-term outcomes of patients with ureteric calculi.
Methods
A prospective observational study included 120 adults with radiologically confirmed ureteric calculi. Demographic, clinical, laboratory and imaging findings were recorded. Management was conservative or interventional according to clinical indications. Stone clearance and treatment outcomes were assessed at follow-up.
