Two cases of retained ureteral stents presenting with breakage and encrustations
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research & Health Sciences (IJMRHS) - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
Ureteral stents (Double J stents) have become an integral part of today’s urologic practice. But complications like stent migration, encrustation, stone formation and fragmentation have been found when these stents are kept for prolonged period. So, it is mandatory that these stents should be removed as early as possible to prevent complications and morbidity. We report two patients with broken retained DJ stents with encrustations and calcification.
