As reported, six weeks after a percutaneous nephrolithotomy (pcnl), an x-ray was performed on the patient, revealing a foreign body in the kidney.The surgeon was provided an image of the foreign body, however, the foreign body was unable to be identified.The foreign body is believed to be a wire guide, wire guide coating, or a stent.The customer provided a catalog number for a standard fixed core wire guide and the suspect medical device (section d), will reflect this at this time, although it is possible the foreign body may be from an unspecified stent.No additional patient consequences were reported.Additional information has been requested.At the time of this report, no further information has been provided.
