Stone in the Urethra of a Baby
نویسنده
چکیده
on palpation a hard mass could be felt near the anterior end of the urethra. Urethral obstruction was confirmed by failure to pass a fine rubber catheter further than the obstructing mass. The child was lightly ansesthesized and the obstructing body worked forward to the meatus by external manipulation. The meatus was incised sufficiently to expose the point of the obstruction which was then removed by leverage with the single blade of a SpencerWells artery forceps. The urine was drawn off with a fine rubber catheter and the meatus sutured with fine silk. The urine was turbid and was found to be heavily charged with oxalate crystals. Next day the prepuce was very oedematous causing obstruction to the passage of urine, so the child was circumcised after which he made a complete recovery. The foreign body proved to be a calculus the size of a black pepper, of dark brown colour, and nearly round.

The accessory urethra, in which a urinary stone existed, arose from the posterior urethra to the scrotum. Because of recurrent urinary tract infection and urinary discharge from the accessory urethra, surgical removal of the accessory urethra through a scrotal i...

متن کاملA Giant Dumbbell Shaped Vesico-Prostatic Urethral Calculus: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Calculi in the urethra are an uncommon entity. Giant calculi in prostatic urethra are extremely rare. The decision about treatment strategy of calculi depends upon the size, shape, and position of the calculus and the status of the urethra. If the stone is large and immovable, it may be extracted via the perineal or the suprapubic approach. In most of the previous reported cases, giant calculi ...
