Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Interlabial masses in infants and children are quite rare. One of their rarest causes is urethral polyp or urethral caruncle. It is a benign fleshy outgrowth at the urethral meatus. Certain etiology is still unknown.
CASE: A healthy 9-month-old female infant presented with a mass protruding from the vulva with no other complaints. Examination with the patient under general anesthesia revealed an interlabial mass appearing as a pedunculated pinkish polyp, originating from the posterior lip of the external urethral meatus. Surgical excision of the mass was done and histopathology confirmed it to be a urethral polyp.
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION: Urethral polyps are rare in the pediatric age group. Their occurrence in this age group might support a congenital etiology. Surgical resection of polyps allows histopathological examination and a high cure rate with no risk of recurrence.
