Double-J (DJ) ureteral stents are frequently used in urology to ensure urinary drainage.

In this case report, we present the successful endourological management of a severely encrusted and fractured DJ stent in a patient with cerebral palsy.Double-J (DJ) ureteral stents are frequently used in urology to ensure urinary drainage.
