Abstract: Vesical calculus are more commonly seen in males than female counterparts.Giant vesical calculus with a diameter >5 cm is extremely rare in females.We reported a female case of giant vesical calcu-lus complicated with chronic renal insufficiency,secondary epilepsy and urinary infection.Furthermore,the causes of diseases,clinical symptoms and therapeutic regimen were investigated based upon clinical character-istics,and relevant literatures were retrospectively reviewed.This female case hinted that much attention should be paid to giant vesical calculus because it is easily neglected due to reclusive symptoms.Moreover,it yields a high incidence of spontaneous rupture of the bladder and related complications.
