Urethral prolapse is a very rare disease, which is most often found in prepubescent girls. It occurs in about one over 5000 girls in the context of a chronic cough or any situation that increases abdominal pressure. It is often associated with diagnostic confusion, which delays management. We report the case of a 6-year-old child brought in urgently by her parents for a minimal genital hemorrhage and presence of a mass protruding from the vulva. In the hypothesis of a urethral prolapse, a medical treatment (conservative) was prescribed. After two weeks, the mass decreased significantly in volume and disappeared completely after 2 months.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
