Sumario:Inserting Double-j ureteral stent is one of the most popular procedures in urology field. There are different indications for indwelling the stent. For some reasons, it could be neglected for a long time despite its importance. We present a case of 52-year-old patient who had a missed fragment of stent in the urinary bladder for two years with stone formation on one end. We successfully removed the stent and the stone. Such a case is considered rare to deal with during urology practice.
