Answers:
Yes, sometimes they do, but it is not permenant!. It is not the same as a stent that is used in the heart!. They only leave it there to help the stone pass and then they take it out!.

It goes in the ureter, which is the tube that goes from the kidneys to the bladder!. It is not in the penis!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
