Forgotten ureteral stent is frequently observed in urologic practice. It has serious consequences such as encrustation, stone formation, fragmentation, ureteral damage, and sepsis. Panureteral damage by forgotten stent is a major complication requiring complex reconstructive surgery. We report a case of 66-year-old man with forgotten ureteral stent for 10 years, which caused panureteral damage. Ileal ureteral substitution was done and kidney was salvaged. Prolonged forgotten stent can cause panureteral fibrosis and requires complex surgical procedure such as ileal ureteral substitution.

Introduction: Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) has significant advantages over indwelling catheters. To facilitate CIC, a continent catheterizable channel (CCC) to the bladder is required in some cases. The Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy (APV) is considered the gold standard for pediatric CCC creation.

We present a method of internalization of nephroureteral stents to internalized ureteral stents in a patient with an ileac conduit urostomy with radiation-induced ureteral strictures, and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). This technique is applicable to patients requiring internalization of nephroureteral stents in the setting of an ileal conduit, emphasizing patient consent, preparation, position, imaging guidance, and antibiotic prophylaxis. The successful application of this technique offers a practical solution for managing recurrent UTIs in patients with similar medical histories, providing both clinical and procedural insights.

Introduction And Objective: Radical Cystectomy (RC) is one of the most common and complex surgical procedures in urologic surgery, and benign ureteroenteric anastomosis strictures (UAS) are complications described in about 15% of patients undergoing RC with different urinary diversion (UD). The aim of this study is to evaluate and analyze risk factors related to the development of ureteral stenosis after RC.
Materials And Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent RC with ileal conduit from December 2019 to December 2022 were included.
