  • Title: Female urethral diverticulum containing a calculus: a case report.
    Author: Susco BM, Perlmutter AE, Zaslau S, Kandzari SJ.
    Journal: W V Med J; 2008; 104(4):15-6. PubMed ID: 18646678.
    Abstract:
    Urethral diverticula with calculi have a low incidence as reported in the literature. This elderly female patient was first seen with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), dysuria, and hematuria. She had two large stones, one in the bladder and one in a urethral diverticulum. Litholapaxy with a laser was effective in resolving both calculi. Subsequent urethral diverticulectomy was effective in removal of the urethral diverticulum.
