We report a case of 55years old male patient non diabetic or hypertensive who presented with urinary symptoms. His biochemical parameters were within normal limits. Urine analysis and culture sensitivity showed infection. His ultrasonography revealed a giant vesical calculus with intra prostatic extension and bilateral hydroureteronephrosis and small prostate.
