Özet

Presence of multiple calculi in a single system ureterocele is a rare condition. A 3-year-old boy presented with recurrent urinary tract infections in whom multiple calculi were noted in the urinary bladder on x-ray and ultrasound scan. In addition, ultrasound showed the presence of ureterocele in the size of 18x15x12 mm. Open surgery revealed an ureterocele with multiple stones. Here, we present a boy with multiple stones in the left ureterocele diagnosed intra-operatively due to its rarity, etiology and treatment options.
