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-yearold 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.
