A Case Report and Literature Review of a Giant Bladder Stone in a 43-year-old Female (9 x 8 x 4 cm, 250g)

Cystoliths are an uncommon manifestation of urolithiasis. They are typically observed in male patients who are over the age of 45. A giant bladder calculus is a stone that is greater than 4 cm in diameter and weighs more than 100 g. We report the case of a 43- year-old female who was admitted to the urology department with dysuria, lower abdominal pain, fever, nausea, and microscopic hematuria. Mild tenderness in the suprapubic region was noted during the patient's physical examination. A hyperdense image measuring 7.2 x 6.4 cm was revealed during an abdominal CT scan, which confirmed the diagnosis. A 280 g stone, measuring 9 x 8 x 4 cm, was extracted through open cystolithotomy. In the female population, bladder calculus formation is uncommon. The standard treatment is open cystolithotomy, and computed tomography is a valuable tool for confirming the diagnosis.
