Urethral caruncles are the most common benign tumors in the female urethra, and are usually found in the posterior lip of the urethral meatus of post-menopausal women. It is very rare in young girls. Its etiology is unknown. We add a case of urethral caruncle occurring in a 2 year and 5 month-old girl's mid-urethra. We believe that further accumulation of unusual cases may be helpful in discovering the pathogenesis.
尿道肉阜是女性尿道最常见的良性肿瘤,通常见于绝经后女性尿道外口后唇。在年轻女孩中极为罕见。其病因不明。我们增加了一例发生在一名2岁5个月女童尿道中段的尿道肉阜病例。我们认为,更多罕见病例的积累可能有助于发现其发病机制。
