Ureteral double-J (DJ) stenting is a common urologic procedure in several ureteral surgeries and has been used to manage ureteral obstructions during pregnancy. It may result in early and late complications. We review a rare case of migration of the DJ stent into the cardiovascular system in a pregnant female. We also review the literature. The endoscopic procedure to remove this displacement has been done postnatally with no adverse effects.

Ureteral double J (DJ) sent has now become one of the most commonly used tools in endourology. Complications are bound to occur if forgotten to remove, such as encrustations, infection, migration, renal dysfunction, hydronephrosis. Crossed renal fused ectopia is a very rare congenital malformation due to abnormal kidney ascent with fusion during embryogenesis in the first trimester. we report a very rare case of forgotten DJ stent in crossed fused ectopia, in 66 years old diabetic patient post left ureterorenoscopy (URS) done 3 years back. Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) was done for DJ stent removal right.

Amisulpride is an atypical antipsychotic with the preferential action on D2/D3 receptors. Its common adverse effects are extrapyramidal symptoms, insomnia, hyperkinesia, anxiety, weight gain, agitation, hyperprolactinemia. We have witnessed a adverse effect of urinary retention induced by amisulpride at minimal dosage and would like to present the same.

Retroperitoneal schwannomas are though more common among females, are very much rare tumors arising from sheath of nerves. Also, extremely rare during pregnancy. Very few articles till date are there regarding retroperitoneal schwannomas that’s too in pregnant female. Usually these are symptomatic unless causing some compression to other intra-abdominal structures like vessels or bowel and usually malignant. As its retroperitoneal very difficult to diagnose it. So, with proper investigations and radiological imaging, first have to find out the differential diagnosis prior to planning for surgery.

<p class="abstract">Pustular psoriasis is the least common form of psoriasis characterized by the formation of psoriatic plaques studded with pustules. Sorafenib is an oral multi-targeted kinase inhibitor approved for the management of hepatocellular carcinoma. We report a biopsy proven case of pustular psoriasis induced by Sorafenib in a patient of hepatocelluar carcinoma. Cutaneous adverse effects with Sorafenib are rare but are not life threatening. We are reporting this case because of the rarity of association and for highlighting the need for early detection and management.</p>

Background. The first double-J (DJ) stents were manufactured in 1978. Their J-shaped tips efficiently prevent their migration from kidneys and from the urinary bladder. Nowadays, DJ stents are in common use because they provide efficient and relatively safe urinary derivation between the kidney and the urinary bladder. We report this case with the aim to point out possible serious complications with long-term indwelling stents. Case report. The patient was admitted to hospital five years after the placement of DJ in a bad general condition, with symptoms of peritonitis. Radiological examination (plain abdominal film, computerized tomography, excretory urogram and cystography) showed bulky calculosis at each tip of the stent, affunctional right kidney, vesicoureteral reflux through the DJ stent and ureter all the way to the right kidney, as well as a large amount of turbid liquid in the abdomen. In the course of the operation, the bulky stone with the DJ stent was removed form the urinary bladder, followed by a large amount of turbid liquid extracted from the abdomen. During adhesiolysis, a small intraperitoneal perforation through which a tip of the stent prolapsed, was found on the upper pole of the kidney. After that, nefrectomy was performed. The patient was discharged 18 days after the surgery. Conclusion. There are usually no complications with shortterm DJ stent urinary drainage. However, indwelling DJ stents can cause serious complications, such as migration, incrustration and fragmentation. DJ indwelling should be as short as possible. If indwelling stenting is necessary, the DJ stent should be replaced with a new one in due time, or another kind of derivation should be performed. Careful monitoring of patients could exclude any possibility of a stent being forgotten at all.

Double- J stent or ureteral stent is a commonly used prosthesis in post-operative cases of various urologic surgeries for adequate drainage of urine and also helps in passage of small and residual stones. This is a case report of a 32 year old female who came for follow-up for DJ stent removal after a successful and uneventful PCNL procedure. On cystoscopic examination the ureteral stent was found completely coated with urothelium. The urothelium was incised and ureteral stent removed.
