Had a successful transplant in 2016 and a couple weeks later went to get the ureteral stint removed. When the urologist was looking with a scope he said he couldnt find the stint in the bladder! Turns out that the whole stint some how migrated all the way into the new kidney. The only way they could get it out was by cutting a hole into the new kidney. How did this happen? They said everything went good with the removal but since then I've been having blood in my urin and they dont now why. Any ideas?

    Wow, I have no idea! It may be time to get a second opinion though.

    Let us know what you decide to do and how you're doing.
