Skene's Gland Cyst - Case Report of a 2-Year-Old Girl.

BACKGROUND: Skene's glands are the two largest paraurethral glands and the female homologue to the prostate glands. When their ducts become obstructed, cysts may be formed. This usually occurs in adult women. Most cases reported in pediatrics are neonatal, with a single report in a prepubertal girl.

CASE REPORT: We present a 25-month-old girl with a 7 mm nontender, solid, oval, pink-orange paraurethral mass, with no change over a five-month period. Histopathology revealed the cyst to be lined with transitional epithelium consistent with a Skene's gland cyst. The child did well with no sequalae.

CONCLUSION: We describe a Skene's gland cyst found in a prepubertal child.
