Percutaneous Stone Removal in an Adult with a Continent Cutaneous Reservoir: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Stone formation is a known long-term complications of continent urinary reservoirs. We present a rare case of a large stone in a continent cutaneous reservoir in a 56-year-old male managed with percutaneous cystolithotomy. The patient presented with recurrent urinary tract infections and stomal incontinence. CT revealed an 8-cm stone occupying the entire lumen of his reservoir. Rather than removing this large stone through an open approach, the pouch was accessed percutaneously and lithotripsy was performed. In this report, we demonstrate our operative technique and that percutaneous cystolithalopaxy may be a safe and effective alternative for the management of large stones within continent cutaneous reservoirs.
