Abstract

Ureteral stents play a major role in the endourological management of a vide spectrum of urological disorders and have been utilised tremendously almost in all urology clinics. Although, duration of various stents may vary they should usually be removed in six months. Otherwise, the management of forgotten stents may constitute a major dilemma. Here, we report three cases of forgotten stents. One of them had duration of eleven years-the longest time in the literature and required open surgery with multiple incisions.
Key Words: Ureteral stent, Ureteral calculi, Ureteroscopy, Case report.
