Stents have been promoted as an addition to the reconstruction of the urethra in kidney transplants. However, stents can cause serious complications, including migration, congestion obstructive uropathy. We present unusual case of long forgotten Double J-stent 13 years post renal transplant in absence of encrustation. A 43-year-old male patient was admitted with a history of colicky abdominal pain and diarrhea for three days. X-ray of the kidney and urinary bladder revealed retained Double J-stent stent. He was successfully treated by nephrostomy for the removal of the stent. Close follow-ups are necessary to avoid incidence of forgotten DJ stent.
支架已被推广用于肾移植中尿道重建的辅助手段。然而，支架可导致严重并发症，包括移位、堵塞性尿路病。我们报告了一例肾移植13年后长期被遗忘的双J支架且无结痂的罕见病例。一名43岁男性患者因绞痛性腹痛和腹泻三天的病史入院。肾脏和膀胱X线检查显示双J支架滞留。通过肾造瘘术成功取出支架对其进行了治疗。有必要进行密切随访以避免遗忘DJ支架的发生。
