Abstract:
A patient with bilateral staghorn calculi treated by ESWL and endourologic placement of a double-J catheter is described. The patient was lost to follow-up for 18 months after catheter placement. When the patient was seen again, examination revealed a fractured catheter which warranted retrieval by combined nephrectomy and URS.
