An unusual case of a vesicovaginal stone

Gynecol Obstet Invest. 2002;54(1):56-7. doi: 10.1159/000064686.

Abstract

We report a case of an unusual vesicovaginal stone. The dumb-bell-shaped stone created a ball valve effect in the fistula, therefore giving rise to only mild urinary leakage despite the large size of the fistula.
