The number of days to pull out the double-J tube after electrocystectomy should be analyzed in combination with the actual situation.
The double-J tube placed after electrocystectomy can play a role in support and drainage, which helps prevent secondary infection caused by poor urine circulation and promote wound healing. If the operation of electrocystectomy is simple and the wound site is small, it can be pulled out after wound healing in 2-3 weeks. However, if the surgical procedure is more complex or the patient recovers slowly, it may be necessary to keep the double J tube for a longer period of time, which varies from 3 to 8 weeks, but generally does not exceed 3 months.
