    Author: Dahiya P, Gupta A, Sangwan K.
    Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 2007 May; 275(5):411-2. PubMed ID: 17103181.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: A vesical calculus in a prolapsed cystocele is rare. OBJECTIVE: To highlight bladder calculi as a cause of irreducible uterine prolapse. CASE REPORT: A case of irreducible total uterine prolapse caused by multiple vesical calculi is presented. Bladder stones were removed through vaginal cystolithotomy followed by vaginal hysterectomy. CONCLUSION: In cases of acute irreducible pelvic organ prolapse, the possibility of bladder stones should be kept in mind and X-ray pelvis including the prolapsed mass should be done to confirm the diagnosis.
