Abstract
Background: vaginal stone (VS) is a rare condition with non-specific presentation, different predisposing factors and can affect different age groups. Its diagnosis is usually incidental and needs high index of suspicion. Case summary: we reported a case of 29 years old single lady presented with continuous urine leak for more than one year. Ultrasound study (USS) showed urinary bladder (UB) stone. Gynecological examination revealed huge VS damaging the hymen as it extended distal to the level of hymen, cystoscopy showed big UB stone and vesicovaginal fistula (VVF). VS extracted, UB stone removed by open vesicolithotomy (VL) and VVF was planned to be repaired after three months. To our knowledge this is the first VS that compromise the intactness of the hymen. Conclusion: This case demonstrate primary VS due to VVF associated with UB stone causing hymen damage. Key Words: Vaginal stone, urinary bladder stone, vesicovaginal fistula, hymen. Abbreviations: VS; vaginal stone. USS; ultrasound study. UB; urinary bladder. VVF; vesicovaginal fistula. VL; vesicolithotomy. CT; computed tomography. MRI; magnetic resonance imaging.
