Fibroepithelial urethral polyp is a rare benign tumor more common in children than adult that can cause bladder outlet obstruction. We describe a 3-year-old boy who presented with intermittent acute urinary retention affected by a fibroepithelial urethral polyp managed with endoscopic transurethral resection by HOLMIUM laser; no complications neither recurrence were observed. To our knowledge this is the second pediatric case of fibroepithelial urethral polyp treated by HOLMIUM laser.
