Background: Management of forgotten/neglected DJ stent is time consuming, impairing quality of life, complicated, costly and can be lethal. We use galdakao-modified supine Valdivia position to managed bilateral forgotten/neglected DJ stent to reduce the length of operation time and complication. Case presentation: we treated a 33-year-old female with bilateral forgotten/neglected DJ stent. We decided to performed retrograde intrarenal surgery using semi-rigid ureteroscope for the right forgotten/neglected DJ stent and supine percutaneous nephrolithothomy under galdakao-modified supine valdivia position for the left forgotten/neglected DJ stent in a single session. Post operative course was uneventfull and the patient was discharged on the second day. Conclusion: Galdakao-modified valdivia position is a good patient position to perform multiple endourological safe procedure in a single session that could reduce the length of operation time and hospital stay in managing patient with bilateral forgotten/neglected DJ stent.
