dc.description.abstractForgotten ureteral stents (FUS) may entail major complications such as infecti-on, migration, encrustation, stone formation, and kidney failure. These complications increase with duration of stent indwelling. We discuss our ex-perience of therapeutic approaches to treatment management of patients living with double J (DJ) stents for more than 10 years.Material and Methods_ Data for three pa-tients living encrusted DJ stents for more than 10 years were evaluated retrospectively.Results_ All three subjects stated that they did not present to physicians due to absence of typical stent symptoms (such as hematuria, flank pain, and urgency). All three patients presented to us with urinary tract symptoms. Advanced re-nal function loss was present in two patients, and non-functional kidney in one. Laparoscopic neph-roureterectomy was performed on the patient with a non-functional kidney, and multimodal neph-ron-sparing surgery on the other two.Conclusions_ Despite all the many advances in technology, long-term encrusted stents lead to sepsis and loss of kidney function. We think that not forgetting is the best means of protection aga-inst encrusted stent-related complications_
