Abstract

Giant bladder stones are rare in younger patients. Herein, we report a case of acute renal failure in a 31-year-old male with a giant bladder stone. The patient presented with lower urinary tract symptoms and urinary retention with milky-white urine. An emergency suprapubic cystotomy was performed and an 11-cm oval, solid stone was removed. Post-operative creatinine levels progressively decreased to normal and the patient exhibited smooth urination and good recovery at follow-up. A comprehensive physical examination and thorough investigation of the patient's medical history are required during clinical evaluation, diagnosis and treatment, thus preventing misdiagnoses and ensuring prompt treatment.
