Abstract

Polyurethane double-J ureteral stents are widely used in the field of urology. Postoperatively, patient education about the ureteral stent and making sure it is removed at the prescribed time is an utmost necessity. Forgotten ureteral stent is not only disastrous for the patient but also fraught with serious medico-legal implications for the urologist. Herein, we present four cases of long-term retained part of ureteral stent with its varied presentation and subsequent management.
