  • Title: Unusual giant prostatic urethral calculus.
    Author: Bello A, Maitama HY, Mbibu NH, Kalayi GD, Ahmed A.
    Journal: J Surg Tech Case Rep; 2010 Jan; 2(1):30-2. PubMed ID: 22091328.
    Abstract:
    Giant vesico-prostatic urethral calculus is uncommon. Urethral stones rarely form primarily in the urethra, and they are usually associated with urethral strictures, posterior urethral valve or diverticula. We report a case of a 32-year-old man with giant vesico-prostatic (collar-stud) urethral stone presenting with sepsis and bladder outlet obstruction. The clinical presentation, management, and outcome of the giant prostatic urethral calculus are reviewed.
