    Author: Panda SS, Bajpai M, Singh A, Chand K.
    Journal: Afr J Paediatr Surg; 2015; 12(1):98-9. PubMed ID: 25659564.
    Abstract:
    Classic bladder exstrophy is a rare malformation of the genitourinary tract requiring surgical intervention either one-staged or staged fashion. Premature stent dislodgement is a well-known reported complication. We are reporting an unusual case of migration of ureteric stent to thoracic cavity leading to the pleural effusion and respiratory distress in early post-operative period.
