Cartilaginous symphysis pubis cysts are rare. There are 7 cases previously reported in the literature. Patients are commonly asymptomatic or may present with a slow-growing, painless vulvar mass, voiding difficulty, and/or dyspareunia. Two cases were managed at our center over 5 years. We present these 2 cases, a surgical technique for removal, a summary of all reported cases, and some perspectives on the pathophysiologic mechanisms for the origin of this lesion.
