Ureteral Stent Retrieval Using the Crochet Hook Technique in Females
INTRODUCTION We developed a method for ureteral stent removal in female patients that requires no cystoscopy or fluoroscopic guidance using a crochet hook. In addition, we also investigated the success rate, complications and pain associated with this procedure. METHODS A total of 40 female patients (56 stents) underwent the removal of ureteral stents. All procedures were carried out with the...

A kidney ureter bladder (KUB) film showed left encrustation along the ureteral stent thus necessitating removal; however, the ureteral stent could not be removed cystoscopically. The ureteral stent was, therefore, extracted using ...
