Abstract
We report a case of a patient who developed encrusted cystitis after transurethral resection of the prostate. This rare urological condition is characterized by intramucosal calcifications and is commonly preceded by urological instrumentation. Urea-splitting bacteria, most commonly Corynebacterium urealyticum, are the causative pathogen. Treatment is a combination of antibiotics, urine acidification, and endoscopic removal of encrustations.
