Can Our Body Reject The Gastro Intestinal Stunt Placed After Gall Bladder Removal?

Can your body defecate (get rid of) a gastro-intestinal stunt placed here after gall bladder removal? I had some stones stuck in the liver duct and had to be placed a stunt but then after a month later, a regular x-ray DID NOT SHOW THE STUNT INSIDE OF ME ??
I am 45 years olf 5'3 weigh -
172lbs and am in good health.
