Abstract
Vesical diverticula are herniations of the bladder mucosa and submucosa through the muscular wall of the bladder. A calculus in diverticulum is an unusual finding. It is usually secondary to bladder outlet obstruction [1]. The patient typically presents with lower urinary tract symptoms, lower abdominal pain or abdominal distention. The present case is a 64-year-old male with a giant vesical diverticulum calculus. Cystolithotomy was done with primary closure of bladder, with repair of bladder diverticulum. Post-operatively, he recovered well with improved lower urinary tract function.
