Brief summary

Prostatic resection cavity stone post transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). A rare case scenario

Detailed description

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard surgical therapy for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) owing to senile prostatic enlargement. Following TURP, LUTS may persist in a percentage of patients. Persistent LUTS necessitates proper evaluation and management (1). In a rare case report, delayed occurrence of storage and obstructive voiding symptoms after TURP can be caused by dystrophic calcification of the prostatic resection cavity and might be misinterpreted as post-TURP infection. The mechanism of dystrophic calcification entails minimizing tissue trauma by cautious removal of calcifications rather than performing extensive Re-TURP (2). In our case, a rare presentation of storage LUTS as result of prostatic cavity stone extending into the bladder with same continuum, elicite the core issue of post TURP storage LUTS.
