Case Report of Preputial Calculus
Abstract
Preputial calculus is a rare form of urolithiasis seen usually in an uncircumcised male with phimosis. We report a case in an elderly male who presented with difficulty in voiding and dysuria. Calculus is evident on clinical examination by palpation. Treatment is by dorsal slit or circumcision. Early recognition and treatment will prevent late complications like obstructive uropathy.
