Unusual Presentation of Giant Vesical Calculus in an Adolescent Female
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Background: Giant vesical calculus is rare nowadays. The purpose of this case report is to highlight the difficulty in its detection and consequence of misdiagnosis in an adolescent female. Case: A 14-year-old female presented with progressively increasing lower abdominal lump, and was misdiagnosed sonographically as having teratoma. The mystery was unraveled by CECT and MRI and treated by cystolithotomy. Summary and Conclusion: Careful sonographic examination needs to be done due to small uterus and ovaries in an adolescent female when presenting with calcified pelvic lesion, to avoid any undue surgical procedure.
