Abstract

Diverticulum of female urethra is rare, often discovered during complications. We report a case of diverticulum of female urethra containing multiple calculi in a multiparous woman of 52 years old. She has consulted for dysuria and a hard painful periurethral mass in the anterior vagina wall. The diagnosis was easily established by physical examination and confirmed by plain radiographs of the lower urinary tract and endovaginal ultrasound. The patient was treated successfully by diverticulectomy.
