description there are different complications of using ureteral stents in urology field, one of the challenging complications is stent fragmentation which is frequent in patients with missed and forgotten stents accompanying encrustation, presented case was 70- year-old female, left single kidney with stent fragmentation After TUL and stent insertion one year ago, because of retained fragments in kidney, ureter, and bladder, combined antegrade and retrograde approach was used for stent fragments extraction, for preventing stent related complications we should signify the importance of timely extraction of ureteral stents during inpatient and outpatient visits and using remembrance methods.
