Iatrogenic omental percutaneous shunt and resolution of obstructive fetal uropathy. A case report.
A double pigtail stent was placed to decompress an obstructed fetal kidney. The stent was dislodged, causing an iatrogenic marsupialization between the renal pelvis omentum and skin. The omentum acted as a drain, decompressing the kidney.
