CASE REPORT OF A RARE PRESENTATION OF MULTIPLE GIANT BLADDER STONE
Bladder stone can be classified as primary, secondary or migratory and the etiology can be multifactorial. Unlike kidney or ureter, bladder stone only constituted around 5% of all urinary tract stone. Generally bladder stones occur in conditions such as bladder outlet obstruction, neurogenic bladder, chronic infection and foreign body. The prevalence is higher in male with a reported ratio of male to female of 4:1.
Giant bladder stone is a rare condition moreover of a case of multiple huge stones. There is a numerous case report about a single giant bladder stone but not so in case of multiple calculi. We reported a case of a lady presented with a sudden onset of acute renal impairment with multiple huge bladder stones detected from imaging. Open cystolithotomy was done and a few huge bladder stones were extracted. This case report is to illustrate a rare presentation of multiple giant bladder stones.

Epidermal cyst is the most common type of cyst to occur in subcutaneous tissue. It is usually small, asymptomatic, and solitary in lesion. When the size is greater than 5 cm, it is classified as a giant epidermal cyst. If the size is big, it may sometimes mimic a soft tissue sarcoma, hence requiring further evaluation with imaging or histopathological studies. We report a case series of two patients whom presented with a huge swelling at different body regions, involving gluteal and chest. Both patients underwent different modes of imaging to delineate the anatomical extent of the lesion. Excision biopsy was done and the histopathological report confirmed epidermal cyst with no malignancy. The purpose of this case series is to describe the rare occurrence of giant epidermal cyst and to elaborate the methods of approach to arrive at the diagnosis.
