Abstract

Increased use of the DJ stent in urological problems has been associated with a marked increase in DJ related complications. Possible complications of ureteral stents include stent migration, encrustation, stone formation, and fragmentation. Spontaneous fragmentation of DJ stent is a rare complication and removal of upper fragmented part is technically difficult and very challenging. We report a case of laparoscopic left pyeloplasty with fragmented DJ removal for left PUJ obstruction and fragmented upper coil of DJ in pelvis.

Keywords: DJ stent, Fragmentation, PUJ obstruction.
