There was a clinical suspicion of colonic diverticulitis
Numerous centimetric stones were found in the bladder, and various volume-rendering reconstructions (Figures 1 and 2) confirmed that these stones had developed like beads on a necklace along the distal intravesical pigtail loop of a double-J ureteral stent
Summary
Comment Short-term (4 to 6 weeks) placement of a double-J ureteral stent is a very common procedure in daily urologic practice. Forgotten Ureteral Double-J Stent Complicated by Severe Encrustation in the Bladder Case Report A 58-year-old man was referred to our medical imaging department with complaints of urinary frequency and dysuria associated with suprapubic and hypogastric pain. Numerous centimetric stones were found in the bladder, and various volume-rendering reconstructions (Figures 1 and 2) confirmed that these stones had developed like beads on a necklace along the distal intravesical pigtail loop of a double-J ureteral stent.
