    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Case Reports

    Background:

    • Urethral lithiasis is a rare condition, with giant calculi being exceptionally uncommon.
    • Literature on large urethral stones, particularly those lodged in the penile urethra, is scarce.

    Observation:

    • A case of giant urethral lithiasis is presented.
    • The calculus was located within the penile portion of the urethra.

    Findings:

    • The presented case highlights a rare occurrence of a large stone within the penile urethra.
    • The scarcity of similar documented cases underscores the unique nature of this finding.

    Implications:

    • This case adds to the limited body of knowledge on giant urethral stones.
    • It may inform diagnostic and management strategies for similar rare urological presentations.
