Résumé
Calculus in the urethra of the female is very unusual. The patient remains asymptomatic or uncommonly presents with symptoms of dysuria, post-void urinary dribbling, and dyspareunia. If asymptomatic, it can be diagnosed incidentally on gynecological examination. Being hard in consistency, it may mimic metastatic lesion. We present a case of a female who presented to us for management of ovarian mass. On routine examination there was a hard mass in her vagina which was suspected to be a metastatic lesion. This mass on evaluation came out to be a urethral diverticulum with a large calculus. Very large urethral calculus are a very rare presentation in a female.
