DJ stent - boon or curse?

Abstract

DJ stent is considered as a boon by the urologist but without proper knowledge it turns to be curse for the patient. We report a case of a 34 year old man who developed vesical calculus secondary to DJ stent in a short span of 6-8 months. He underwent cystolithotomy for removal of the vesical calculus along with the DJ stent.
