So large was the prostate that the tip and balloon of the indwelling catheter was seen to just reach beyond the end of the gland (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3). Suprapubic catheterisation was not viable due to the fact that patient's entire bladder was filled by intravesical prostate tissue as depicted in Fig. 1.
