Double‐J stent placement during laparoscopic ureterolithotomy: the “seagull” technique

Abstract: Objective To present a new technique of double‐j stent (DJ) placement during laparoscopic transperitoneal ureterolithotomy (LUL). Patients and methods Following the extraction of the stone, a 6 French DJ open‐end stent is prepared: two straight‐tip hydrophilic guidewires are inserted into the appropriate lateral holes of the stent, as identified by the preoperative evaluation of the CT scan. Approximately 5 centimeters of each wire protrude from the proximal and distal ends of the stent to straighten its termi… Show more

“…This technique might damage the ureter by introducing the stent through two broken ends of the ureter in opposite directions. A similar method involves inserting two guidewires into the JJS through two lateral side holes, then removing the two guidewires after the two ends of the JJS sequentially reach the target sites [5]. It is worth noting that the above-mentioned two methods involve the extra cost of another guidewire.…”

“…Antegrade JJS placement is easily performed in open surgery, however, the procedure becomes challenging in laparoscopic operations even in the era of robotic surgery. Although several antegrade JJS placement methods were proposed previously [1,[3][4][5], there is still much room for improvement.…”
