We present a case of a forgotten stent in CRFE that was removed via retrograde intrarenal surgery after ureteric stone therapy (RIRS). The ureteral double J (DJ) STENT is now one of the most often utilised endourology tools. Encrustations, infection, migration, renal failure, and hydronephrosis are all possibilities if the device is not removed. Crossed renal fused ectopia is a relatively unusual congenital abnormality caused by improper kidney ascent and fusion during the first trimester of pregnancy. We provide a very uncommon instance of a forgotten DJ stent in crossed fused ectopia in a 66-year-old diabetic patient following a 3-year-old left ureterorenoscopy (URS). DJ stent removal was performed by retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). In the therapy of forgotten stents, endourological management can lead to a safe and satisfactory conclusion. Before and after stenting, proper education and counselling of patients and relatives, as well as maintaining a stent registry, may help reduce the occurrence of forgotten stents.
