A hanging bladder calculus on the dome of the bladder is rarely seen, and a hanging bladder
stone concurrent with bladder cancer is observed even rarer. Herein, we report a 76-year-old
male patient presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms and recurrent urinary tract infection.
A hanging stone on the dome of the bladder was seen and treated endoscopically. We also
coincidentally found and resected a suspicious lesion which was diagnosed as low-grade
papillary urothelial carcinoma.
