“…6 In addition, urethral polyps, a lesion seen in children, may be congenital. 10 Urethral polyps are more common in males, but do rarely occur in females, and are thought to be congenital, although infection, irritation, obstruction, and trauma have also been proposed as etiologies. 10,11 A case of a giant urethral polyp in a female newborn was reported, with a large red mass protruding through the labia.…”

“…10,11 A case of a giant urethral polyp in a female newborn was reported, with a large red mass protruding through the labia. 10 The infant underwent a voiding cystogram and ultrasound showing normal bladder and kidneys. Subsequent cystoscopy revealed the lesion arising from the posterior (dorsal) urethra and it was treated with excision.…”

“…The differential diagnosis of a mass protruding through the labia in a neonate also includes the paraurethral cyst, prolapsed ectopic ureterocele, and embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (sarcoma botryoides). 10 Although generally a pediatric lesion, urethral polyp has been reported in adults, including in a patient with postcoital hematuria. 12 Goel et al delineate three architectural patterns to a urethral polyp; polypoid with projections resembling a cloverleaf, florid cystitis cystica/glandularis, and a polypoid lesion with finger-like projections resembling polypoid cystitis.…”

Objectives: The female urethra may become involved by a variety of conditions, which may be challenging to providers who treat women. Mass-like urethral lesions need to be distinguished from other lesions arising from the anterior (ventral) vagina. Methods: A literature review was conducted. A Medline search was used, using the terms urethral neoplasms, urethral diseases, and female. Results: Reported lesions of the urethra were reviewed. Many of these lesions can be mistaken for each other clinically. Conclusions: A review of the scope of urethral lesions is presented to assist in developing a differential diagnosis if a patient with a urethral lesion is encountered. For practitioners who care for women, this will encourage communication and consultation where appropriate. ( J GYNECOL SURG 31:189)

“…Twelve cases of urethral polyp were reported in prepubertal girls up to 2007. 1,2 The most common presentation of urethral polyp in girls is an interlabial mass 1,3 and external genitalia bloody discharge (sometime mistaken for vaginal bleeding). [3][4][5][6] Other symptoms such as vulvitis, urinary tract infection (UTI), and urinary retention have been reported in some cases.…”
