An Interesting Foreign Body In Urinary System: Metal Clips
Abstract
Migration of surgical materials into the urinary system is a rare situation. Forgotten and/or fragmented ureteral stents were defined more frequently as foreign bodies in urinary system in the literature. But surgical clips migration is an interesting case. In this paper, we aim to present a 31-year-old man with a medical history of multiple urinary operations. We extracted two metal clips, one of them was from the ureter and the other from the renal pelvis of this patient. The case is discussed in the light of the literature.
