Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* The long thick substance passed was calculus, with the overlying adhesion of epithelial or fungal components, it may be looked like as worm mistakenly.
* I recommend to undertake a lab testing of the same for confirmation.
Regards.
