We report an exceptional migration of ureteral stent in patient who underwent a robot-assisted laparoscopic right pyelotomy. After stone removal, an antegrade ureteral stenting (7-french; Double J) was performed without fluoroscopic control. A radiographic control was performed the next day and highlighted a migration into the cardiovascular system. The Double J was removed percutaneously through the right femoral vein under fluoroscopic guidance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
