Title
Chronic urine ascites secondary to proximal migrating of double-J ureteral stent into peritoneal cavity: A case report
Implanting of a prophylactic double J stent during ureteroneocystostomy has been adopted as routine procedure for preventing anastomotic complications. In extremely rare events, the coiled distal end of the stent migrates upward through ureterovesical anastomosis into the peritoneal cavity. We report below a case that presented with chronic urinary ascites secondary to ureteral stent displacement which was successfully treated by endoscopic intervention.
