An overlooked complication of the clean intermittent catheters: prostate calculi.

In this study, no significant difference was observed between the parameters such as age, uric acid level, MSD, urine parameters, and other electrolyte levels (Table 1) While the incidence of prostate calculi in Group 1 was 23.4%; The incidence of prostate calculi in group 2 was 37.5(p = 0.007) (Fig. 2). CONCLUSıON: In this study, it was tried to show the relationship between the use of CIC and prostate calculi that cause LUTS and dysuria, which are generally ignored in clinical evaluation but do not pass in patients. As a result of this study, it was determined that the incidence of prostate calculi increased in patients using CIC.
