Abstract

Urethral prolapse is a very rare disease characterized by circular protrusion of the distal urethral mucosa along the external mea. A 9-year-old girl admitted to the pediatric surgery clinic with the complaint of painless spotting vaginal bleeding. Physical examination revealed that, a round, reddish edematous, 2x2 cm fragile mass in the vestibulum prolapsed from the external mea. Patient was discharged on the first postoperative day uneventfully. In this paper, we aimed to present a 9-year-old girl who was admitted for urethral prolapse and treated surgically.
