An arrangement comprising a ureter tube, a mandrin having an outer shaft and an inner shaft, the inner shaft being longitudinally movable relatively to the outer shaft, and an auxiliary tube, the ureter tube and auxiliary tube being slidable onto the mandrin, and the mandrin and the ureter tube being releasably connected with each other; pear the proximal end of the mandrin outer shaft provisions are made for facilitating the introduction of an X-ray contrasting medium, and the distal end of the ureter tube having at its face a central opening, whereby the contrasting medium is enabled to flow through the length of the mandrin outer shaft in a substantially rectilinear path and to then exit the arrangement at the central opening. Focusing on another aspect of the arrangement, the distal end of the mandrin outer shaft and the mandrin inner shaft are approximately flush with the outer surface of the ureter tube tip surrounding the central opening, whereby traumatization of the ureter during introduction of the ureter tube with the mandrin inner shaft and the mandrin outer shaft therein is avoided.
An arrangement comprising a ureter tube having proximal and distal ends, a double mandrin having proximal and distal ends, inner and outer walls, and an outer mandrin and an inner mandrin which inner mandrin is longitudinally movable inside and relative to the outer mandrin, and an auxiliary tube having proximal and distal ends, the distal end of the auxiliary tube is in contact with the proximal end of the ureter tube, said ureter tube and auxiliary tube containing and being slidable over the outer mandrin, and said outer mandrin being releasably connected with said ureter tube by first releasable clamping means and said outer mandrin being releasably connected with said auxiliary tube by a separate second releasable clamping means, to form a functional unit of double mandrin, ureter tube and auxiliary tube, wherein both proximal end and the distal end of the ureter tube have openings and inherent curvatures and the distal end of the ureter tube has a central opening surrounded by the distal tip of the ureter tube, which distal tip has a distal face and wherein near the proximal end of the outer mandrin there are provided means for facilitating the introduction of an X-ray contrasting medium, and whereby said contrasting medium is enabled to flow through the length of said outer mandrin in a substantially rectilinear path via the open distal end of the outer mandrin and the central opening of the distal end of the ureter tube where it exits and arrangement.
An arrangement comprising a ureter tube having proximal and distal ends, the distal end containing a distal tip;
