Urethral Steinstrasse following Laser Lithotripsy of Prostatic Urethral Calculi

الملخص EN

Symptomatic prostatic calculi are rare occurrences with several management options, the most popular of which is currently transurethral laser lithotripsy.

This is a generally well-tolerated procedure with minimal complications.

To date, no reported episodes of steinstrasse at the urethral level following prostatic calculi lithotripsy have been documented to our knowledge.

We report a unique case of acute urinary retention secondary to obstructive calculi fragments following a transurethral laser lithotripsy of large prostatic calculi, further complicated by stricture at the fossa navicularis.
