Abstract


Giant urethral stones are rare entity especially in children. We are reporting a rare case of giant urethral stones secondary to diverticula and urethrocutaneous fistula which was postsurgical complication of incision and drainage of urethral abscess. This 10 year old boy presented with dysuria and urine dribbling from fistula over ventro-lateral aspect of mid penile shaft with two hard nodules palpable over middle and proximal shaft of penis. KUB and Retrograde urethrogram demonstrated two urethral calculi with diverticula. Both calculi were removed by open urethrolithotomy with excision of fistula tract and diverticula.
