title: Case report: the stone-basket nidus.
abstract: A 55-year-old man presented with intermittent right-flank pain 6 months after ureteroscopic stone extraction with holmium laser lithotripsy. A distal-ureteral stone was removed that contained fragments of a stone basket. Diligent inspection of endourologic accessories is critical to ensuring no fragments are left in patients, especially when a laser has been used.
