More Information
Summary:A 46-year gentleman presented with a left-sided lumbar region pain without fever or dysuria. He denied episodes of acute urinary retention. There was a hard mass at the distal urethra with normal laboratory blood tests. Computed tomography urogram revealed a concurrent left renal staghorn calculus and large distal urethral stone. The urethral stone was fragmented via endourologic technique successfully. We report a case of a non-obstructing large urethral calculus in a gentleman with concurrent left renal staghorn calculus and discuss the literature review.
