Chest imaging revealed a collapsed left lung. Abdominal imaging showed a giant bladder stone (11\u2009\n                      <jats:sup>\u2217<\/jats:sup>\n                      8\u2009cm). Given the patient\u2032s severely reduced pulmonary reserve, he underwent open cystolithotomy under local anesthesia with mild sedation. The stone was removed successfully with no major perioperative complications.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In patients with a collapsed left lung, the anesthetic risk associated with general or spinal anesthesia is significantly high. In such circumstances, local anesthesia with sedation, although uncommon for open bladder surgery, may be considered when the patient\u2032s clinical condition mandates it. Adequate preoperative optimization, including chest physiotherapy and careful perioperative monitoring, is essential. Management requires balancing the risks of anesthesia against the risks of leaving the stone untreated, such as infection, renal damage, and bladder dysfunction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Open cystolithotomy under local anesthesia with mild sedation may be a feasible alternative in high\u2010risk cases with giant bladder stone where general\/regional anesthesia is contraindicated.
