Abstract

Urethral prolapse (UP) is a condition characterized by circumferential prolapse of the urethral mucosa through the external meatus generally seen in girls. Bleeding, dysuria and an asymptomatic prolapsed mass are the main presenting complaints. UP may be confused with many pathologies that can cause genital bleeding or tumor. Conservative management and surgical resection are the treatment options. We present this case due to its rarity, low rate of accurate diagnosis at the first presentation, as well as the presence of only one reported case from our country and to raise awareness of UP.

Özet

Üretral prolapsus (ÜP) genellikle kız çocuklarında görülen üretral mukozanın dairesel şekilde eksternal meatustan dışarıya doğru prolabe olması durumudur. Kanama, dizüri ve prolabe olmuş asemptomatik kitle, hastaların esas başvuru şikayetleridir. ÜP genital bölgede kitle ve kanamaya neden olan birçok patoloji ile karışabilmektedir. Tedavi seçenekleri konservatif tedavi ve cerrahi rezeksiyondur. Ender görülmesi, ilk başvuru anında düşük oranda tanı alması ve ülkemiz sınırlarında bildirilmiş olan tek olgu bulunması nedeni ile ÜP farkındalığı yaratmak adına bu olguyu sunmayı amaçladık.
