ABSTRACTObjectivesTo present a case of foreign body granuloma (FBG) development after injection of calcium hydroxylapatite as a urethral bulking agent and to review all documented cases of this phenomenon in the literature.MethodsWe analyzed a new case of calcium hydroxylapatite-induced FBG. We also conducted a literature review of the PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and Web of Science databases through March 2022. Reports were included if they contained stress urinary incontinence patients that developed an FBG after calcium hydroxylapatite injection. The cases were reviewed for presenting symptoms, patient demographics, granuloma details, and surgical treatment.ResultsWe screened 250 articles and included six articles between 2006 and 2015 in addition to the present case. The median age of the patients was 65.5 years (range 45–93), and all patients were female. The most common presenting symptoms and the proportion of patients affected were difficulty voiding (4/8), recurrent urinary incontinence (3/8), and dyspareunia (2/8). The median time between the first CaHA injection and discovery of the FBG was 5 months (range 1–50). The median longest dimension of the FBGs was 1.85 cm (range 1.0–3.0). The 8 masses observed were evenly distributed throughout the urethra, with 3 in the bladder neck, 2 in the midurethra, and 3 in the distal urethra. Surgical excision was the predominant management choice, with some variation in technique.ConclusionsSevere, persistent lower urinary tract symptoms after calcium hydroxylapatite injection may indicate an FBG, which has been successfully managed with surgical excision.
