Incidence and timing of inadvertent nephrostomy catheter displacement in  patients with ureteral obstruction
.

CONCLUSION: There were no significant differences in the nephrostomy catheter displacement-free survival rates between the two types of catheters. Regardless of the type of catheter, our results indicated that careful handling and guiding during catheter placement are important for all patients because of the high risk of inadvertent events.
