🩺 Long-Term DJ Stenting

🔍 How Often Should a Long-Term DJ Stent Be Changed?

✅ Stents are not permanent – they need periodic replacement.

📆 Recommended change: Every 3–6 months (depends on stent type, patient condition, and doctor’s advice).

⚠️ Why change matters?

Prevents infection buildup

Reduces risk of stent encrustation

💡 Regular follow-up with your urologist ensures stent safety and long-term kidney protection.
