Colossaprostatolithiasis: A Case Report on a 48-Year Old Male with A Giant Prostatic Calculus

Abstract

While prostatic calculi are said to be overwhelmingly common, it is, however, rare to find patients with exceptionally large calculi that would cause urinary tract obstruction. Indeed, prostatic calculi generally remain asymptomatic in almost all men, because of its non-obstructive nature. Presented here is the case of a 48-year-old male with one giant prostatic calculus that replaced almost the entire gland. He underwent endoscopic and open surgical management for the stones.
