ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Bladder lithiasis comprises 5% of urological lithiasis. Large bladder stones associated with vesicovaginal fistulas are rare, and the risk factors are not an isolated process. There are metabolic comorbidities associated with this pathology, including diabetes mellitus. CASE PRESENTATION: A 70-year-old Mestizo patient is presented, reporting dysuria, pollakiuria, and abdominal pain of 4 months of evolution, located in the hypogastric region, also with a sensation of a foreign body in the vaginal introitus. In her pathological history, she presented type 2 diabetes mellitus. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis was performed, reporting a tumor lesion in the abdominal wall. Therefore, surgical intervention was performed by cystolithotomy, obtaining a giant stone adhered to the vaginal wall with a size of 10 cm × 12 cm. CONCLUSION: Early detection of this pathology should be exhaustive in patients with characteristics and comorbidities associated with stone development to avoid possible complications, such as vesicovaginal fistulas.
