I am a 62 year male. I had a urinary tract infection recently and cured with a course of antibiotics. While investigating doctor had advised a cy scan of abdomen. The report is normal except that the urinary bladder is showing a diverticula of size 15x7.5x13.8cm with a communication measuring 2.7 cm. It also shows a calculus of 2 mm there is np mass lesion in bladder or diverticulam. The diverticulum is not an acquired one my doctor is of the view that there is nothing to be anxious.

Dear , sorry my opinion is different than that of your doctor. I think that you have bladder outflow obstruction and and the diverticulum is secondary but is large with a wide mouth and 2 mm stone could pass on its own. As there is no mass in it, it is better. However I think you must have some symptoms passing urine or frequency or urgency or slow stream and scan must show increased thickness of bladder wall thickness and some postvoid residual urine. It would be immense help you can post films of the scan. Uroflowmetry would also help. I think you may get repeated attacks of uti and if so one should consider surgery of either prostate or bladder neck. Please post the details as requested.
