Nightmare of urologist: Forgotten DJ stent (case series)

View through CrossRef
DJ stent is a routine procedure performed by a urologist. DJ stents are forgotten when instructions are not given properly, illiteracy, ignorance, increased patient load in the clinic. Forgotten DJ stent associated with complications i.e., recurrent urinary tract infections, stone formation, fragmentation, migration, obstructive uropathy, hematuria, deterioration in renal function, urosepsis. Management of these forgotten DJ stents depends upon complications. Antibiotics manage encrusted DJ stents, ESWL or PCNL for the upper end, cystolithotripsy or cystolithotripsy, ureteroscopy for lower end. We describe the management of forgotten DJ stents in 3 patients.
