Abstract

Abstract

Urethral diverticulum is a rare pathologic entity. A 40 year-old male patient admitted to our clinic with left flank pain, dysuria, frequency, obstructive symptoms and sensation of incomp-lete emptying of urine. He was paraplegic and had a history of cerebral hemorrhage arising after an automobile accident. IVU(Intravenous urog-raphy) revealed staghorn left kidney stone. Left percutaneous nephrolitotomy was planned. Prior to cystoscopy, a urehtral diverticulum was diag-nosed. Urethrography revealed a diverticulum 8 cm in diameter. Open diverticulectomy and primary repair were performed. Diagnosis and treatment methods are important especially for treating symptomatic urethral diverticula.

Keywords: Acquired, paraplegia, staghorn, urethral diverticulum, urolithiasis
