    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Gynecology
    • Medical Microbiology

    Background:

    • Vaginal stones are rare, often associated with foreign bodies.
    • Vesicovaginal fistulas can lead to urinary stasis and infection.

    Observation:

    • A 25-year-old female presented with a large vaginal stone.
    • The stone was linked to a vesicovaginal fistula.

    Findings:

    • The vaginal stone was composed of struvite and carbonate apatite.
    • Formation was attributed to non-absorbable surgical sutures and a urease-producing bacterial infection (Proteus mirabilis).

    Implications:

    • Highlights a rare cause of vaginal calculi formation.
    • Emphasizes the need for careful surgical material selection and infection control.
    • Underscores the importance of preventing and managing urinary tract infections to avoid calculus formation.
