Chronic irritation of bladder by urinary bladder calculus is a known risk factor for bladder cancer. The use of Wrigley's obstetrical forceps in general surgical practice is a rare event. Herein, we report a case of a giant urinary bladder calculus which was removed by Wrigley's obstetrical forceps during open cystolithotomy. The bladder biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder. With this report, we aim to create an awareness among surgeons about the role of the Wrigley's obstetrical forceps during open cystolithotomy, and the role of taking urinary bladder biopsy from chronically inflamed/unhealthy sites.
膀胱结石对膀胱的慢性刺激是膀胱癌的一个已知风险因素。在普通外科手术中使用箭牌产钳是罕见事件。在此,我们报告一例巨大膀胱结石病例,在开放性膀胱切开取石术中使用箭牌产钳将结石取出。膀胱活检显示为膀胱鳞状细胞癌。通过本报告,我们旨在提高外科医生对箭牌产钳在开放性膀胱切开取石术中的作用以及从慢性炎症/不健康部位进行膀胱活检的作用的认识。
