Abstract

Introduction:
Subcapsular renal hematoma is a very rare complication of double-J stenting in urology practice. Infection, malposition and migration are well known stent complications, which may be monitored by blood and urine analyses and kidney ureter bladder radiographs. However, follow-up of patients with regular ultrasound examinations is crucial as unexpected and potentially fatal complications may take place at any time during or after stent insertion. Case Report: We present a rare case with chronic
Case Report: We present a rare case with chronic subcapsular renal hematoma diagnosed by ultrasonography, two weeks after the removal of double-J stent. Conclusion: Ultrasonography is important to rule out stent malposition or other serious stent complications. | |
