ABSTRACT
Background: prostatic calculi are frequent after 50 years old and cause urinary infections and urination difficulty when they are large.
Clinical case: the case of a patient with a large prostatic calculus which caused acute urinary retention is presented. When making the digital rectal exam, a prostate of firm consistency that impressed because it felt crepitant at touching, could be perceived.
Results: the extraction of the prostatic calculus was made through the longitudinal incision of the capsule of prostate and the bladder in the Maria Curie Teaching Oncological Hospital of Camagüey, in August, 2014. The patient was discharged seven days after the surgical treatment. A follow-up care was established.
Conclusions: a large prostatic lithiasis can be the cause of acute urinary retention, although its presentation is infrequent.
