Stent Encrustation due to Forgotten Double-J Stents: A Series of Five Cases

Journal Title: Journal of Urological Surgery - Year 2020, Vol 7, Issue 3

Abstract

Although Double-J stents have become very common in the urological practice and are effectively used for various reasons, several complications related to it, such as hematuria, infection, irritative symptoms, pain, perforation, encrustation, and migration, have been observed. The present study reports five case reports of stent encrustation due to forgotten stents.
