case_images: (a) X-ray abdomen and chest showing both ureteric catheters in normal position and blunting of right costo-phrenic angle due to hydrothorax (thin arrow: tip of right ureteric catheter, thick arrow: tip of left ureteric catheter, asterix: blunting of right costo-phrenic angle), (b) X-ray abdomen and chest showing migrated ureteric catheters and clearing of right costo-phrenic angle after tapping of fluid (thin arrow: tip of right ureteric catheter in right thoracic cavity, thick arrow: tip of left ureteric catheter below left diaphragm, asterix: clearing of right costo-phrenic angle, arrow head: Pigtail catheter in left renal pelvis)

case_images: Both the ureteric catheters were normal in position and there was blunting of right costo-phrenic angle due to hydrothorax [Figure 1a]. A chest and abdomen X-ray were carried out, which showed clearing of pleural effusion on the right side and right ureteric catheter was found to be migrated to the right thoracic cavity and left ureteric catheter was found just below the left diaphragm [Figure 1b].
